Did y'all catch Squirmin Herman's spot on ESPN about Shady?

Wow. Herm took a stand. And get out of his yard.

According to Jeff Lane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Chip Kelly called LeSean McCoy and McCoy hung up on him. Chip Kelly denies calling McCoy:



Philly Inquirer - According to sources, Chip Kelly tried to call McCoy this week, but once he identified himself, McCoy hung up

McCoy initially didn't want to go to the Bills. He found out about the trade from his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, by phone. McCoy was training in Miami at the time and after breaking down in tears, he resumed running a series of sprints, each one faster than the next.

Kelly lamented how the news of the trade was relayed to McCoy. An ESPN reporter broke the story before Kelly had an opportunity to tell the running back himself. Kelly eventually tried to reach McCoy, but the calls were never answered.

He tried again on Tuesday, according to sources with knowledge of the call. McCoy didn't recognize the number and answered. When Kelly identified himself, McCoy hung up. On Wednesday, McCoy said he stood by offseason comments he made about Kelly's not respecting stars and getting rid of all the "good black players."

"I know he was pissed, and he should be pissed, rightly so," Kelly said.
McCoy was also upset that it took so long for Lurie to call after the trade. Even before the 2014 season, when asked about his chances of suffering the same fate as DeSean Jackson, McCoy had referred to his close relationship with Lurie.

McCoy has said he loved being an Eagle. He grew up in Harrisburg. He was drafted and developed by the team. He became the franchise's all-time leader in rushing yards. He was the alpha dog of the locker room.
"A lot of my good friends are still on that team," McCoy said.

PFT: Chip Kelly denies calling LeSean McCoy

After Sunday’s win over the Bills, Kelly denied that it happened. He didn’t deny the report within the context of a question about that specific topic; instead, he was asked whether the various questions about issues unrelated to the playing of the game created a distraction.

“[A] lot of it to me is tabloid journalism that they just tried to stir things up but it didn’t affect us,” Kelly said. “I mean, we were playing the Buffalo Bills and a really well coached team by Rex Ryan that has a lot of really good players. But when people want to make up false stories about me calling someone during the week and them hanging up on me, I just think people are trying to get Twitter hits and things like that and make themselves significant when stuff doesn’t happen.”
