DeSean Jackson was selected in the second round of the NFL draft by the Eagles in 2008, meaning he hasnt made the type of money the highly-selected rookies have. The dynamic receiver is only scheduled to earn $565,000 for the upcoming season despite being one of the top playmakers in the league. Given his shoddy contract situation, he may be considering a holdout.
Hopefully, hell be here tomorrow, Michael Vick said of Jackson. DeSean just has some things to think about and some decisions to make that only himself can make.
Jacksons agent is Drew Rosenhaus who says hes learned that playing hardball with the Eagles doesnt work. Hes still reportedly considering a holdout which makes some sense. Youll be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesnt believe Jackson deserves more money, and that probably includes the Eagles. Yes hes under contract, but when you play in the NFL you have to get the money while youre healthy . For someone like Jackson who suffered a concussion last season, there is even more urgency to get paid.
