DeSean Jackson Wants Out Of Tampa Bay, Potential Landing Spots May Include Eagles, Redskins & Rams

Josina Anderson of ESPN reports that Buccaneers WR DeSean Jackson wants to move on from Tampa Bay next year.

According to Anderson, issues began to fester following the Buccaneers’ game against the 49ers, which led to an exchange with HC Dirk Koetter over him not practicing through a hand injury.

Anderson lists the Eagles, Redskins and possibly the Rams as potential landing spots for Jackson.

Jackson requested a trade before this year’s deadline, but the Buccaneers ultimately held onto him.

Jackson, 31, is a former second-round pick of the Eagles back in 2008. He spent six years with the Eagles before signing a three-year, $24 million contract with the Redskins back in 2014.

After three years with the Redskins, Jackson once again departed in free agency and agreed to a three-year, $35 million contract that includes $20 million guaranteed with the Buccaneers. He stands to make a base salary of $10 million for the 2019 season.

In 2018, Jackson has appeared in 12 games for the Buccaneers and caught 41 passes for 774 yards receiving and four touchdowns. He has also rushed for 29 yards and a touchdown.

We’ll have more regarding Jackson as the news is available.
