The Philadelphia Eagles talked a lot of trash before their game against the Washington Redskins, and the upset win by the Redskins lead to DeSean Jackson boasting after the game.
DeSean Jackson used to play for the Philadelphia Eagles, but that was a relationship that ended abruptly and was painted as a move to save the image of the team. Jackson promptly signed with division rivals in the Washington Redskins and had been salivating over meeting the Eagles twice a year.

The first meeting didn’t go so hot, but the second time around the Redskins got their act together and DeSean Jackson was able to get his revenge the way he wanted. He didn’t score a game-winning touchdown or kick the game-winning field goal himself. However, he managed to come up with some huge catches on the night and was a huge part of the win.
After the game, DeSean Jackson was seen dancing, skipping and singing his teams’ praises as he left the field and entered the Redskins tunnel.

Jackson, who used to play the the team he beat, probably feels a little more accomplished than his other teammates as he helped contribute in big ways to the Redskins wins over the Eagles. Washington will not be making the playoffs this year, but they beat the Eagles who might end up missing the postseason themselves thanks to the loss to DeSean Jackson’s new team.
