DeSean Jackson Responds to the Chip Kelly Firing and You Need to Hear This

DeSean Jackson finally did it. We’ve been waiting for it since Chip Kelly was fired as head coach of the Eagles. Jackson finally addressed the Kelly firing with some substance.

After Kelly was fired everyone immediately stalked both Jackson’s and LeSean McCoy’s social media pages waiting for posts from them.

There’s no need for me to set this up further. Here’s what Jackson had to say about the situation:

“I’m a firm believer that bad karma comes back on you. When you ruin a team like that, you do things to peoples’ families, you release people, you trade people, you get rid of good players who build something with the community, with the fans, with the kids—to have a guy come in and change up the team like that, I just believe in karma. I don’t have any bad words to say about him as far as what he feels he needs on his roster. But the guys that were on that roster created something special, from Jeremy Maclin to LeSean McCoy to Trent Cole to Todd Herremans and myself and Brandon Boykin; it goes on and on and on. When we were there we were a brotherhood. So for everyone to go their separate ways and to see how it all ended up, it’s a very sad thing.”

Thoughts? Let us know on social media.

    As much as I don’t like Desean Jackson as a person or player, he’s absolutely right. I hated watching him showboat around the field after touchdowns or catches, but there is no question that he made huge plays for the team. Same goes for all of the other guys that Chip let go. As Mikey Miss said yesterday, Chip took a flame thrower to this team. It’s going to take a few years to get it back together. Hopefully they can bring in the right guy to do it.

    Lol this from the great leader of the 8-8 / 4-12 team….DeSean was spending more time trying to be a wannabe gangster / rapper than WR. Further the players Chip released had average / subpar years. And all new coaches wipe out staffs and players. Move on, were destined to stink for a decade, what coach who could win wants to play where the last two winning coaches were fired??

    Wow sum real talk though I feel strong about what deshawn said lot of disrespectful things said and done to talented players especially to the black ones I think chip kelly is racist and can’t handle a intelligent strong talent so had to get rid them so team can function under his point of finger I don’t wish any bad on anyone he has family to but it’s called Karma .Bible says do unto others as you want done to you..

    Jackson is absolutely right, what happen to the Eagles under Chip was a disgrace, would love to see them all come back together!

    Jackson. Is so right .eagles had a great team .to trade everyone was crazy. It seen to me where one get trade going to the Super bowl and win. I hop jackson get a ring .he is a good player.

    Oh shut the fuck up..the reason why you were traded was because you were insubordinate, missed team meetings, practices, pre-game check ins, always put yourself before other teammates, and practically pulled a god over everybody and Chip couldn’t stand you. I’m not a chip fan but I never really liked you as a person or a player..its called pro football buddy. Shit happens. Suck it up. This happened almost 2 years ago. Time to move on, you crybaby

    Dffjdjd, is just a racist…
    Jackson is right and you know it… you weren’t in the locker room to know what was going on. No strong dominant black man will the orders from a college coach that’s disrespectful and have no por experience…
    Jackson has a job Boykins are both in playoffs. while dumb dumb coach is jobless… lol! stop crying and help racist Chippy find anot her tear to destroy… lol…

    I agree with him. All except them “Having Something Special”. They were a fun team to watch, but how many playoff games did they win with that group. It was time to move on..

    I was going to agree with dffjdjdjdj, but I don’t want to labeled a racist. God forbid say anything about a black man. I guess I can only criticize white people, so they need to drop Billy davis.
