Mod Edit: Now announced:

https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/eagles/eagles-great-lesean-mccoy-officially-announces-his-retirement?cid=Yahoo&partner=ya4nbcs

 

As some may already know Im sort of an NFL insider, however, can rarely speak on things I know because of NDAs and all that.  I will never be anyone's anonymous source.

 

Anyway, LeSean is retiring and will be honored next week at the Chiefs @ Eagles game. I got the honor to be invited to the party and will post pics in this thread when the time comes. I thought this was already reported and was looking for a link to add in this thread before I realized it hasnt been announced yet. Probably because LeSean wants to remain "available" until the last minute in case the right situation crops up within the next few days. Whatever the case is, I got approval to speak on this as its not considered a big deal and the public announcement is imminent. I will also be attending the Eagles/Chiefs game 🤮 but sporting my Bills McCoy jersey as he will always be a Bill in my heart ♥️

Had a couple of great years for us. So strange how a RB's career can just fall off a cliff in the space of 1 season.

 

Then again, he ruined The Avengers for so many Marvel fans so ***** him

one example, of soo many, jock and the average person, who are negative about Buffalo and when they visit-live in the area, the attitude changes to the positive...I took some friends from the Wash DC area up to Buffalo the last time we hosted Washington as they wanted to sample the Bills home game day experience; needless to say the Bills are their second favorite team and enjoyed our people, food and football culture...but they said our 40 degrees has to be the coldest they have experienced

 

example two...Jerry Glanville, long-time coach, told a story that when as assistant he took a job in Buffalo, that his wife was upset and cried over it, and when they left town for another job, that she was upset and cried about leaving Buffalo...

 

so good luck to Shady, he was the last of our go-to-backs when running the ball was still a priority..

I credit him significantly for the immense joy of the 2017 season, one of my favorite years.  I will never forget that team - Shady, Zo, Kyle and Tyrod made something out of nothing with McDermott leading the way.  I knew we had a bright future by the time I went to Jacksonville for that heartbreaking loss.  Even walking out though, I knew better days were ahead of us.  💪

Congrats to Shady on a great career, and thanks for being a bright spot on the Bills for a few seasons.

Yeah McCoy is a swell guy. Who among us hasn’t abused restaurant employees and left a $.20 tip? Going to a strip club with some thugs who get into a fight with off duty cops shows pretty good judgment. Then there was the ex-girlfriend that he couldn’t get rid of who coincidentally gets roughed up and robbed. I think he should go up on the wall.

Honestly one of my favorite Bills. Loved watching him play

Him and Incognito were one of the best duo of RB-Guard I've seen with the Bills.

Loved watching Shady play for the red, white, and blue, and glad he was a big part of ending the drought.  Also happy for him he backed into two rings at the end of his career.

 

HOFer?  I think so.
