DeSean Jackson Says Eagles Are 'On To The Next Game'
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson says he and his teammates are "on to the next game," and downplayed any speculation that he's unhappy with head coach Andy Reid, his teammates or his diminished role in Philadelphia's offense.
Jackson, on pace for the fewest catches of his three NFL seasons, was visibly upset after Sunday's 31-26 loss in Chicago. He managed only two receptions for 26 yards and sat by himself at his locker for a long time afterward. He didn't speak with reporters.
He also declined comment Monday as the Eagles (7-4), who share the NFC East lead with the New York Giants, began preparations for a home game Thursday night against Houston (5-6).
Subsequent reports indicated that Reid, who blasted the entire team in the locker room after the loss, singled out Jackson for criticism.
