The Baltimore Ravens are attempting to fill their wide receiver hole by signing DeSean Jackson to the roster. 2022 will be Jackson’s 15th season in the league at 35 years old. Details of his new contract have not been released at time of writing, but given his age, it is likely a one-year deal.
The NFL’s official Twitter account released the news on Tuesday.
Jackson was a second-round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. He played there until 2013, and again in 2019-2020. He has also bounced around to Washington, Tampa Bay, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and now Baltimore. The Rams gave him a Super Bowl ring, although he was not on the roster during the Super Bowl.
In his 15-year career, Jackson has been selected to three Pro Bowls and a Second Team All-Pro (2009). He holds the NFL record for career touchdowns of 60-plus yards (26) and is tied for the NFL record for touchdowns of 80-plus yards (five).
