Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison took to social media to rail against kids receiving "participation" trophies.

When the two-time Super Bowl champion found two of the trophies had been given to his two sons, he took to Instagram to explain why he was returning them.

The post generated a huge response, with many of his followers praising his sentiments on the subject.

The 37-year-old Harrison, a five-time Pro Bowler, returned to the Steelers last season after a brief retirement.

What do you think of what he had to say?
