Bo Jackson, undoubtedly one of the greatest athletes of all time; he excelled at the top tier of TWO professional sports for crying out loud.

So no doubt the world has an eye on his progeny, wondering how his kids and grandkids will fare in athletics.


Well unfortunately, we might never get to find out how they do on the football field, because Jackson says there's "no way" he's letting his grandson play football.

Jackson told Tony Anderson of USA Today, "He ain't playing no football, no sir, he ain't playing football."  When pressed for further explanation on the matter Jackson bluntly responded, "He doesn't have to."

This doesn't mean Jackson will quell his grandson's pursuit of other sports, though.

When asked what sport he thinks his grandson, who is currently 18-months-old, will find himself playing, Jackson answered, "Baseball or golf, Aaron Judge No. 2."
