Jackson, an iconic two-sport athlete who was a top running back in the NFL and a stud in the MLB, is one of the most renowned sports figures ever. The former Heisman Trophy winner terrified defenses in the pros from 1987-1990, also playing baseball from 1986-1994.
He is the only athlete in American sports history to be an All-Star in two different professional sports out of the four major leagues, having made the Pro Bowl in 1990 and the All-Star game in 1989.

“It’s like this – if you know how to do something, and you did it right, that was my job. I know I did my job right. I did my job to the best of my ability,” he said. “I don’t need to watch somebody else do my job, or do what I used to do as a job.”
Jackson also intimated that the game has become a bit extra due to excessive celebrating, claiming he’d rather not have to watch a dance contest.
“Besides, for me, right now, and I can’t take nothing from these young cats playing, but I’d rather watch football,” he continued. “I don’t need to see a dance contest. I don’t need to see a celebration. I don’t need to see that, dude.”
