Desean Jackson Q&A

I think was taken from an event at the Philadelphia auto show... Desean answers questions from fans and reporters.

Thanks to "TheMightyErock" for posting the vid.

For a guy who came to the team with some allegations of character concerns, he seems like he’s got a pretty good attitude (or at least has been well-coached).

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

I had the opportunitiy to meet him and was surprised at both how humble and how shy he was. I was talking to his handler and he told me that DeSean was one of the nicest most down to earth player he has ever been assigned to.

i dont think lewis will be back again ,wish i could say the same for brown, they can say what they want but i think they will bring in a wr, but they need a rb as well buckhalter should shut the f up and do what they tell him to do period!, how many years was he just messed up and couldnt play but they never gave up on him hmmm….

He is a free agent he has every right to find a better job. He deserves to be “the guy” the Eagles seriously under utilized him last year and it’s a shame.

didnt like that

i was interested in what desean had to say but there were a lot of dumb fans there with some dumb questions. Plus it was annoying listening to people cheer to his answer. Like wtf is that. Id rather watch a video where the members of bleeding green nation interview him because MOST of us actually know what were talking about and follow football all year round.

Well, I suppose you’re going to get that at a fan event.

Unfortunately, had the Eagles made the superbowl there was supposedly a good chance that we might have been able to get an interview with Desean. A guy at SBN thought we could get it… but I guess when the Eagles lost the opportunity went away.

Hopefully come training camp we’ll have a shot.

Im surprised BGN doesnt get more cred from the eagles. If you somehow had interviews with the players on here, you would hear about this site all over the place. No one i know has heard of it but its deffinintly one of the best eagles news sites out there. I like it better than philadelphiaeagles.com. Atleast here people will be honest.
