Raiders' McFadden Helping Make Wish Come True

7/19/2010 at 9:37am

Former Arkansas running back Darren McFadden is featured in the latest installment of ESPN’s “My Wish” series.

ESPN and the Make-A-Wish Foundation work together to help make “wishes” come true for seriously ill children. McFadden was part of a wish for Jailen Cooper, a 10-year-old North Carolina boy that recently underwent surgery because of a brain tumor.

Cooper spent the day at Raiders’ training camp and even got the opportunity to "tackle" McFadden. Also, McFadden gave Cooper a tour of the Raiders’ headquarters.

ESPN has a story and video on the event on its website.
