LeSean McCoy and DeSean Jackson are two of the most dynamic weapons in NFL history, but which player would you start an NFL team with? Aaron Donald was a guest on the 25/10 show and was asked which player he’d start a team with.
Donald took a second to think through his answer and decided on Shady McCoy because of his ability to turn negative plays into explosive ones.
DeSean Jackson asked Aaron Donald the toughest question of the entire episode… If you’re starting your team and you can only choose 1, which player are you picking: DJacc or Shady? 😅

LeSean McCoy is arguably the most excellent running back in Eagles franchise history, and he’ll be honored this coming season during the team’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Philadelphia used a second-round pick (53rd overall) in the 2009 NFL Draft on McCoy, and he became the franchise’s all-time leader in rushing yards (6,792 yards). A three-time Pro Bowl back (2011, 2013-14) and two-time All-Pro (2011, 2013) with the Eagles, McCoy recorded the third-most rushing touchdowns in team history (44), and he still holds the franchise record for the most rushing yards in a single season (1,607 yards in 2013).
McCoy set the team’s single-game rushing record with 217 yards during the iconic “Snow Bowl” in 2013, which became the standout running back’s signature performance.
Jackson formally retired as a member of the Eagles last season.
The three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver with Philadelphia was recognized as the Honorary Captain of the Game in front of a sold-out crowd at Lincoln Financial Field last December 3.
A 2008 second-round draft pick out of Cal (49th overall), Jackson spent eight of his 15 seasons in Philadelphia, where he garnered three Pro Bowl nods (2009, 2010, 2013) as a receiver and special teams standout.
In 95 career games with the Eagles, Jackson ranks third all-time in receiving yards (6,512), sixth in receptions (379), and ninth in receiving touchdowns (35).
As a punt returner, he finished second in punt returns (132) and third in punt return yards (1,296) and is the team’s all-time leader in punt return touchdowns (tied with Darren Sproles with four).
