LeSean McCoy has cleared the concussion protocol and is expected to play Monday night against the Patriots, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. 

The veteran running back left last Sunday's game against the Colts in the first quarter with a head injury and did not return after taking a hard hit. 

However, McCoy had made progress this week, and even though he had been listed as questionable on the Bills injury report, he had been expected to play against New England if he cleared protocol. 

Meanwhile, ESPN reported earlier Sunday that the Bills have talked to three teams about a possible trade for McCoy, but are unlikely to trade him unless they get "an offer they can't refuse." 

McCoy has just 244 yards and one touchdown this season.
