Well it looks like Chip Kelly telling Desean not to worry is a load of bogus. It now seems that the Eagles are pursuing a trade for the wide receiver that believes he won't be back. A insider reported that there is "No Way" that Jackson is in an Eagles uniform this season. They are fed up with the constant contract issues, Desean's "Me First" attitude, and the constant issues on the sidelines. As for the Panthers, they are getting a speed demon/deep threat that will go great with Cotchery and the new receiving core there. Not to mention if Carolina drafts a receiver like Kelvin Benjamin in the first round, the Panthers would give Newton some weapons. In my previous article I stated that I am against a trade involving Jackson, but at the right price I am OK with it. I love his play on the field which is in no doubt exciting, but with the weapons of Cooper, Maclin, Ertz, McCoy, Sproles, Celek, etc it seems Philadelphia can be flexible to shop the receiver. The Jets, 49ers, Patriots have also shown interest but nothing has formulated yet. I expect a deal to get done some time this week even though I would think carefully about this before pulling the trigger, and make sure the deal is right for the organization.
