The 34-year-old receiver was in the final years of his deal (which included insignificant years in 2022 and 2023) with the Eagles, and his release will save Philadelphia about $ 4.8 million in savings. As the Eagles are still significantly over the salary cap, it can be expected that such moves will come in the coming weeks.
Jackson concludes his second series with the Eagles with just eight games played in two seasons. The veteran could not stay healthy enough to make the predicted impact when he returned to Philadelphia, and he combined 23 passes for 395 yards and three touchdowns between 2019 and 2020.
At 34, he still has something in him, but he will have to stay healthy first. We will learn in the coming weeks and month which teams are interested.
