The Facts: McCoy still hasn't spoken to Chip Kelly. The RB said his former coach called him twice, but he didn't answer. So he has yet to hear Kelly's reason for trading him to the Bills last month. McCoy said he heard Kelly say to reporters that money was the primary factor. He said he heard Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie say that Kelly thought his shifty running style wasn't ideally suited to his offense. He has another theory. "I don't think he likes or respects the stars. I'm being honest," McCoy said on Monday. "I think he likes the fact that it's 'Chip Kelly and the Eagles.'"
Diehards Line:
This offseason alone, Kelly traded McCoy and quarterback Nick Foles and watched wide receiver Jeremy Maclin leave via free agency. Longtime Eagles Todd Herremans and Trent Cole were released. A year ago, the Eagles cut receiver DeSean Jackson. "It was 'DeSean Jackson -- a high-flying, take-off-the-top-of-the-defense receiver.' Or 'the quick, elusive LeSean McCoy,'" McCoy said. "I don't think [Kelly] likes that. ..." McCoy said that he has no animosity toward Kelly and that he intends to call his former coach soon. He understands the NFL is a business, but he said he felt disrespected with how the trade went down without his prior knowledge. McCoy, who turns 27 in July, said he is still in the prime of his career. He didn't miss a game during his two seasons with Kelly and he'll see very heavy usage in Buffalo under Rex Ryan and Greg Roman. So it seems everybody gets what they want here.
