LeSean McCoy achieved a feat during Super Bowl LV that no one is talking about
LeSean McCoy is a Tampa Bay Buccaneer?
Many NFL fans may have forgotten that the veteran running back signed with the Buccaneers, and with them winning Super Bowl LV, LeSean McCoy achieved a feat that no one is talking about.
McCoy has now won back-to-back Super Bowl Championships. He won the Super Bowl last season with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Though he did not contribute to the Buccaneers' victory against the Chiefs, he was still on the roster. That means McCoy has now won consecutive Super Bowl Championships without playing a single snap in either game.
McCoy did not play in Super Bowl LIV and also in Super Bowl LV. He will still go down as a two-time Super Bowl champion.
This does not take away from his remarkable NFL career.
At one point in his career, LeSean McCoy was one of the top five running-backs in the NFL.
Let's celebrate LeSean McCoy's back-to-back Super Bowl Championships by reliving his 12-year NFL career.
