No Practice For DeSean Jackson Thursday
6 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (Achilles) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's not looking good for his chances of playing in Week 17 against the Falcons. ESPN's Josina Anderson was also told that Jackson has expressed his preference to move on from Tampa this offseason. He leads the NFL in yards per catch at 18.9, but he's averaging less than 10 yards per catch since Week 4 and has been injured to close out the year. If he doesn't play Sunday, he'll finish the season with 41 receptions on 74 targets for 774 yards and four touchdowns. Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries will have higher ceilings as well in a fine matchup against Atlanta.
