DeSean Jackson says don’t twist his words he’s not demanding a new contract

Eagles WR DeSean Jackson had a career year this season. Jackson had 82 catches, 1332 yards and nine touchdowns. On Monday there was a report that Jackson wants a new contract from the Eagles.

I definitely feel it’s something deserving,” Jackson said Monday, per CSN Philadelphia. “We’ll see how that plays out, and hopefully we can work things out smoothly and not have to worry about anything out of the ordinary.”

Jackson signed a $48.5-million contract with $18 million in guarantees in March of 2012.

“I’m going into the third year of my deal. Just feel it’s deserving. So we’ll see,” Jackson said. “I feel like I’ve proved everything on the field. To do some of the things that top receivers in this league do, I think like I’m right there at the top. So we’ll see how it goes.”

But DeSean wants you to know that he’s not being demanding, that he was asked a question and he simply answered it.

To clarify any info that yall people got twisted up!!! I didn’t ask for a new contract.. I’m blessed to be at the level where I feel my stats did the talking.. Injury free year & healthy, wish the season would have ended different witha ring.. But I;m hopeful that will happen soon.. Don’t listen to mixed words I didn’t say.. Tired of dumb info being twisted to what I didn’t say, Word Up!!

The Question was brought to me, I didn’t bring it up!! Know ya info before speaking str8 lik dat
