Schefter: Eagles could try to get out of WR DeSean Jackson's contract after social media post

Eagles decision on whether to keep DeSean Jackson could come down to whether post is a default under his contract. Jackson is guaranteed $4.8M this year in salary and already received a $2M option bonus. Eagles could try to figure out a way out of guaranteed salary first.

The Eagles released a statement calling Jackson's post earlier today "appalling," and he needs to use his platform to apologize and promote unity. Jackson did issue a video apology. This situation seems far from over and the Eagles now appear to have a big decision to make about his future with the team. Jackson played just about a game-and-a-half last year before being lost for the season with a sports hernia injury. He was being counted on as a top target and deep threat for QB Carson Wentz this year.
