DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagle (PIMP)

[General_Failure]

Maybe they offered him a contract maybe they didn't

They didn't. They're paying him what was agreed to, even if it is assumed by everyone in the world except Joe Banner that players will want to rework their contracts when the money isn't coming in.

Eskin reported that the Eagles told him to stay home and not even come to the game

[General_Failure]

They do know the trade deadline passed, right?

[BigEd76]

re-sign him

I wish they had told me to stay in bed.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Does it matter?

[Munson]

lol forreal. Did the WR's look any worse today then they did last week?

[Eagles_Legendz]

yes, not that it matters.

[ice grillin you]

re-sign him

Does it matter?

no....the less good players you have the better

[methdeez]

After the way this season has gone, after the way the FO has treated him, basically betting that he will get hurt, after being left home from a game, forget not starting or even not playing, why in the hell would he resign with them?
I would hit the market and let someone cake me off.
Or at least get the tag, which is currently $9.5 mill per year for WR's.
There are 7 games left, play out the string and get rich.

It's not a great year for guys who want new contracts.

In Cleveland, running back Peyton Hillis has lost the locker room via behavior that has created a sense that he's erratic and unpredictable.  Now, Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson faces the same fate in Philly.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, some teammates have became frustrated with Jackson's attitude, even before he missed a meeting and drew a deactivation from coach Andy Reid.  According to the source, Jackson is perceived as moping and pouting and generally being more concerned about his contract than helping the team win games.

It's not a surprise.  In September, Jackson said that his top priority is to remain healthy, not to contribute to victories.

The good news for Jackson, if there is any, is that he definitely remained healthy on Sunday.

For the Eagles, there really isn't any good news.  With the team's margin for error now down to zero or less, the real question is whether they've found the bottom yet.

The bad news for Jackson is that he'll be walking into an awkward situation at best on Monday, when he rejoins the team after his one-day exile with pay.

theres not a chance in the world the locker room isnt 100% behind pimp....lemme guess florio wrote that?

[MDS]

the source is probably some coach or trainer who expects pimp to takes his insultingly low salary and kiss banners ring as a thank you

if im pimp i never woulda showed until i got me paid. that was probably his mistake, giving the eagles what they wanted which is cheap african labor.

[ice grillin you]

if pimp acted a fool a year and a half ago then id say pump your brakes homie and wait your turn.....but dunnie has done everything the right way for a long time risking his livelyhood for peanuts....if i was him id never set foot in novacare again

Yep.

And one of the beat guys said something about Asante saying he needed to be held accountable.

It's snowballing.
