Eagles WR DeSean Jackson 'Excited' By Franchise Tag, Plans To Sign Soon

Tim McManus of 97.5 The Fanatic got in touch with DeSean Jackson soon after he was franchise tagged by the Eagles and the WR's response was somewhat surprising. McManus tweeted this statement from DeSean Jackson: “I’m very excited and I’m blessed at the same time. We came a long way.â€￾Jackson himself retweeted what McManus said, so it's clearly legit. McManus also said that there is "legit mutual interest" between the Eagles and DeSean in getting a long term deal done and that Jackson "plans to sign franchise tender ASAP." If Jackson signed the franchise tender now, he'd be able to participate in the full offseason program with the team.

Of course he is...he's WAAAAAAY over paid right now...lol.

 

Maybe he will actually PLAY this season

 

9.5 Million Dollars guaranteed with the tag. I'd be pretty happy as well. However he might not be too excited to be a Redskin or something else when they trade his butt.

 

Ugh.

 

He's so happy again so he can get back to his party life of lust for superfund women's and plush posh hotel suites. He couldn't do that on his measly 500k salar last year.

 

^wat

 

Doesn't he owe money to somebody? Maybe that was Dez...

 

Reports were he owed Rosencunt a bunch of money. I hope he pays him off and gets rid of that twat. Freaking douchenozzle.

 

Rosencunt just got him 9 mil, hes not getting rid of him
