Legendary NFL running back recently reflected on the 2015 trade that sent him to the Buffalo Bills, stating he didn't know who the player he was traded for was.
It was an unassuming winter evening in Western New York, the all-encompassing gray clouds that hung heavy on the sky being indistinguishable from those visible any other night throughout the season.
The Buffalo Bills agreed to acquire two-time All-Pro running back LeSean McCoy from the Philadelphia Eagles on March 3, 2015, a bold move from new head coach Rex Ryan that suggested the team wanted to step out of the depths of irrelevancy and into the NFL spotlight.
“ Drew Rosenhaus, he called me, he said ‘Shady’ . . . ‘This is not a joke,’ that’s the first thing he says to me, he doesn’t even say hello,” McCoy said on a, a podcast hosted by he and former teammate DeSean Jackson. “‘Shady, it’s not a joke, the Eagles are trading you to the Buffalo Bills.’ I said, ‘Hey, stop playing, what do you want man? What do you want, Drew? I’m busy. He said, ‘I’m not playing, Shady. They’re trading you.
Kelly, on the other hand, would quickly overstay his welcome in Philadelphia; he was fired toward the end of the 2015 NFL season, less than a calendar year after shipping McCoy to Western New York. He landed the San Francisco 49ers’ head coaching job that offseason but was fired after a 2-14 campaign. He returned to the college ranks to coach the UCLA Bruins from 2018–2024, recently leaving to become the offensive coordinator at Ohio State.
