McCoy posted on X to say he spent the day at Rough Creek Lodge in Glen Rose, Texas — southwest of Fort Worth, where he now lives. There was no formal acknowledgment of the reported campaign appearance with former Texas A&M quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and two-time Super Bowl champion Texas Tech star Danny Amendola.
Fans questioned whether his return to X — he hadn’t posted since March — was a subtle nod to let the public know he wasn’t attending the Trump rallies in Corpus Christi and Lubbock.
The American-Statesman reached out to McCoy for comment.
“The first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy in college football — I watch that a lot — Johnny Manziel,” Trump said on Tuesday in Corpus Christi, when shouting out the two players. “I didn’t know you were a freshman. I swear to God. Thank you, fellas, great athletes.”
Trump’s two campaign stops follow his rally in San Antonio earlier this month. Vice President JD Vance will also be returning to Texas for a rally in Weatherford on Thursday, roughly two weeks after his last visit to the state for a rally in Tyler.
