Although DeSean Jackson’s free agency is over and he is officially a member of the Washington Redskins, there are still a lot of questions surrounding what exactly happened with the events that led up to his eventual, abrupt release from the Philadelphia Eagles.

But according to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, there is an interview set to air on ESPN Friday with Jackson and Stephen A. Smith that will “clear up everything.”


When the Eagles did make Jackson’s release official, it was literally just hours after a report had surfaced that Jackson had gang ties, which many believed led to his release from the team, allowing him to sign with the Redskins just a few days later.

Now of course, there are always two sides to every story, but it’ll still be interesting to hear what Jackson has to say from his end.
