Eagles WR DeSean Jackson has talked to Carson Wentz, Howie Roseman amid fallout from anti-Semitic post

In lieu of his controversial Instagram post, DeSean Jackson has spoken with General Manager Howie Roseman “a lot today,” John Clark of NBCSports Philadelphia is reporting.

According to Clark, the embattled wide receiver also is scheduled to speak with owner Jeff Lurie at some point as well.

It remains to be seen what further action the Eagles might take or require of Jackson, but both the team’s GM and Owner come from Jewish descent and the comments will likely be hard to come back from regardless of Jackson’s ignorance.

Jackson apologized for the Instagram post that attributed a fake quote to Adolf Hitler saying, “the Jews will blackmail America.”

Jackson is working out in Tampa with teammate Miles Sanders, and according to reports, he’s also had some conversation with Eagles star quarterback Carson Wentz as well.
