This comes shortly after the news that Jackson is undergoing surgery to repair a core muscle injury.
Jackson, 32, 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 was set to make a base salary of $10 million for the 2019 season when the Buccaneers later traded him to the Eagles.
Jackson signed a new three-year, $27 million deal shortly afterward.
In 2019, Jackson appeared in three games for the Eagles and caught nine passes for 159 yards receiving and two touchdowns.
