DeSean Jackson Expected to be Released
Looks like DeSean Jaccson is on the move again.
He’s reportedly going to be released since the Rams weren’t able to move him at the trade deadline:
Per @MikeGarafolo on NFLN just now:
Doesn't sound like DeSean Jackson will find a trade partner, but he's expected to be released by the end of the day if no trade partner is found.

This follows a report from last week, when D Jax and the Rams had apparently decided to mutually part ways:
The #Rams and WR DeSean Jackson have mutually agreed to seek a trade partner, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo. The 34-year-old can still run, averaging 27.6 yards per catch this year, including a 75-yard TD.

Why go elsewhere if you’re DeSean? I guess he wasn’t playing enough. He’s appeared in six games this year, catching eight passes on 15 targets for 221 yards and a touchdown. He caught a 68 yard pass against the Seahawks and 75 yard bomb against the Bucs. He’s back home in California and playing on a good team, and at 34 years old, having not won a playoff game since 2008, this was his best chance for a ring.
As for the Birds, they’re allegedly standing pat:
The #Eagles are not trading Pro Bowl DT Fletcher Cox, as he alluded to on Instagram.
