Eagles & DeSean Jackson Far Apart Regarding Contract Extension

 

Paul Domowitch of the Philadelphia Daily News writes that league sources have informed him that DeSean Jackson‘s “opinion of his worth continues to be night-and-day different from the Eagles.”

Eagles’ owner Jeffery Lurie mentioned that they would be interested in keeping Jackson ”if the right terms develop” but Jackson’s asking price appears to be out of the Eagles price range at this point. DeSean has said that he’s open to being franchised but that move carries a $9.5 million price tag and Eagles could certainly use that money elsewhere.

Jackson has proven to be a great weapon when properly motivated but the question marks that currently surround him will most likely limit the amount of money he’ll make during free agency. We have Jackson listed as the #24 best available free agent in our Top 50 Free Agents list.
