If your immediate reaction to yesterday’s news that DeSean Jackson was going under the knife to address an abdominal/sports hernia was one of disappointment, today’s news should make you feel even worse:

That’s it, that’s all, folks. Unless you believe the Eagles are going to make the second round of the playoffs, DeSean’s season is over. He’d be eligible to return in eight games, which officially takes him out of the equation for a Week 16 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. At least we have the Sixers, right?
