The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson is still negotiating with his team for his new contract. With two years left on his current four-year contract that was signed during his rookie season, Jackson thinks that it is time to raise his salary to match his on-field performance. He made it clear that he was unhappy with the current progress of the negotiation.
“There has been no progress so far,” Jackson told Tyler Dunne of The Philadelphia Daily News. “I’m looking forward to just working with them and hopefully making something happen.”
Jackson can earn a total salary of $3.47 million on his current contract, and he has earned $776,000 last season, including $385,000 in base salary and a $391,000 roster bonus. If he continues with current contract, he will earn $ 805,000 ($470,000 in base salary and a $335,000 roster bonus), and that’s definitely not what the receiver wants with his current fame.
Recently appearing in Brett Favre jersey in a youth football camp, Jackson said that he would still give the Eagles some time for negotiation and wanted the deal to be done before 2011 season. Otherwise he may seriously consider joining another team during next offseason.
