PHILADELPHIA -- Who says the Philadelphia Eagles are through with national television until next season?

Receiver DeSean Jackson, and two other Eagles, made a surprise visit Thursday on ABC's "The View." They took the stage, and greeted guest Nadin Khoury, 13, of Upper Darby, Pa., with an Eagles No. 10 Jackson autographed jersey.

Jackson, as well as guard Todd Herremans and center Jamaal Jackson, were there to show their support for Khoury, who was bullied by a group of seven attackers last month, one of which videotaped the incident.

Jamaal Jackson presented a gift basket, and Herremans offered Eagles tickets to a game of Khoury's choice next season.

Scroll down to watch the video.

If I agreed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Way to go Eagles. Sort of ruins the image that losers (like Joe Buck) try to paint of Philly sports. Reminds of the day that the Phillies ran out to help the ground crew at Coors Field during a Colorado Rockies rain delay, while the home team ran for the dugout.

This is why I'm a Philadelphia sports fan. A true blue collar city.

For all the bad we hear about those in pro sports, it was nice to hear this. WTG HuffPO for running this!

Children should feel free to report bullying, and adults should support them by any means necessary, we own them.

This just melts the heart ... at least mine. God bless and protect young Nadin, his family and kudos to these athletes for lending their names (and muscle) to addressing bullying in our schools.

I LOVE the fact that he is so smart and brave and getting recognized when the idiotic kids that did that to him will do time while he is going to go place now.

Ironic how things happen in life, hope everyone young and old learns from this and stop bullying others, may it be political, religious or whatever way.
