    The 13-year-old boy who was bullied and beat up by a "wolf pack" of teenagers in Pennsylvania last month received a surprise visit from his favorite football player on live television.

    Nadin Khoury was walking home from school on Jan. 11 when he was randomly accosted by seven teens who attacked him for 30 minutes. The incident was filmed by one of the assailants, which helped propel the sickening incident into the national spotlight.

    On Thursday, a resilient Khoury appeared with his family on "The View" to discuss the incident and bullying in general. Near the end of the segment, he was surprised by Philadelphia Eagles players DeSean Jackson(notes), Todd Herremans and Jamaal Jackson(notes).

    Jackson, the Eagles star receiver, is Khoury's favorite player. After coming out on set and hugging the middle school student, Jackson gave Khoury the jersey off his back (literally) and let him know that if he ever needed help, he and his two lineman had his back. Herremans later mentioned that the Eagles would give the family tickets to any Eagles game next season.

    Pretty cool of DeSean Jackson. Don't judge a book by it's on-field antics. =P

    I think this has been posted before, but It's still an amazing story nonetheless.

    Agreed. Just as long as she's not allowed to talk.

    Very classy move by Desean Jackson, Jamaal Jackson and Herremans. I have mixed feelings about Desean, I love the fact that he played for Cal but he sometimes acts like an immature kid and do not like at all that he mentions his highschool rather than Cal during game intros. Its good to know that he probably has his heart in the right place.

    Anyone else notice his limp? I don't know when this was filmed but it looks like he is really hurting. I wonder if that was the injury he got in the Wildcard game?
