Buffalo Bills: LeSean McCoy Calls Kiko Alonso’s New Contract ‘Garbage’
By Ryan Brennan
Kiko Alonso recently posted a photo of him tackling LeSean McCoy — a photo that the Buffalo Bills’ running back didn’t like very much.
Former Buffalo Bills‘ second round draft pick Kiko Alonso recently shared a photo on Instagram that featured him tackling beloved running back LeSean McCoy. If you know Shady McCoy, you know he doesn’t really take anything from anyone.
This was evident after the 2016 regular season ended, when the running back was seen on TV declaring that ‘no back can touch me’ and listing himself at No. 1 on his list of top-five running backs with the league.
I totally agree with him, too.
That’s why I wasn’t surprised when I saw LeSean McCoy’s comment on Kiko Alonso’s Instagram post, mentioned above. Here’s a look at the photo that was posted:
McCoy didn’t really hold anything back in the comments section and got right to the point with how he felt about the photo. Here’s what he said, word for word:
"“@elbravo_47 boy ya dad wish u was as good as me… n ya new contract garbage lol my 2011 money … take me off ya page u BUM”"
The comment is especially funny considering that the Buffalo Bills traded Kiko Alonso for LeSean McCoy in 2015.
Kiko Alonso didn’t enjoy a lot of success in 2015 with the Eagles, finishing the season with 43 tackles, one interception, one pass defensed and two stuffs in 11 games. He did follow that up with a good season in Miami last year, finishing with 115 tackles, one forced fumble, 4 fumble recoveries, 2 interceptions, one TD, 4 passes defensed and 6 stuffs.

LeSean McCoy found some good success in 2015, but injuries limited him most of the year. He finished with 895 yards and 3 touchdowns in 12 games. Last season, he was one of the best running backs in the league. He finished the season with 1,267 yards, 13 TD, 5.4 avg. and 55 first downs in 15 games.
LeSean McCoy is obviously confident in his game and will likely see that confidence turned into another productive season for the Buffalo Bills. I certainly have no problem with the Instagram comments because I know he always backs his talk up with solid play. Plus, he’s well aware that they will face off twice next season.
It should make up for quite the rivalry next season. Oh boy!
