DeSean Jackson Doesn't Miss Eagles, Says 'Maclin Is All They Got'

By Andrew Porter

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) --- DeSean Jackson loves the limelight and while he is having a productive season, his team is certainly not. The 3-11 Washington Redskins are a mess, losers of six straight, with major question marks surrounding their once "franchise quarterback" Robert Griffin III.

On Sunday, following his team's 24-13 loss to the Giants before his former's teams NFC East clash with the Cowboys, Jackson was asked if he missed the Eagles.

"Nope. I don't miss the team," Jackson told the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I don't miss the organization. There's no point in living in the past. This is my team. This is where I am for better or worse. Do you live in the past? It's no way to live.

"Didn't you hear? I'm a gangster," Jackson said sarcastically. "I'm in a gang. That's why I'm gone."

Jackson claims he doesn't miss the Eagles, but do the Eagles miss D-Jac?

"I know there's still guys in that locker room that got my back," Jackson said. "They still got [Jeremy] Maclin. I'm happy for my boy. He's been dealing all year. But it's Maclin and that's all they got."

On Monday morning, Maclin posted, "Learn your facts before you talk ish" to social media with this photo attached:
