LeSean McCoy has claimed that his former head coach at the Philadelphia Eagles Chip Kelly does not "respect" star players.

Kelly has made a series of transactions since he was appointed as the Eagles' head coach two years ago, including the release of Pro Bowl wideout DeSean Jackson and the trade of McCoy himself to the Buffalo Bills.

The 26-year-old feels that Kelly has a lack of respect for star players because he would rather have the focus on himself and the team instead of other individuals.

"I don't think he likes or respects the stars. I'm being honest," McCoy told the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I think he likes the fact that it's 'Chip Kelly and the Eagles.'

"It was 'DeSean Jackson - a high-flying, take-off-the-top-of-the-defense receiver.' Or 'The quick, elusive LeSean McCoy. I don't think [Kelly] likes that."

McCoy rushed for 1,319 yards last season and five touchdowns.
