Little-used receiver DeSean Jackson asks Rams to let him go elsewhere

DeSean Jackson has not been included in the Rams offense much this season, leading to the receiver to ask for a trade. “It’s hard to say.” Jackson’s departure would mark the Rams’ second major roster move in advance of Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline. Asked whether Jackson’s situation was another move to create space, McVay said, “This is kind of independent of that.” McVay previously coached Jackson in Washington. He said Jackson “could make huge contributions for us later in the season,” but he respected Jackson’s competitive fire. “He wants to still show that he can still make plays and contribute in this league.” As with Woods, Kupp said he respected Jackson’s competitive nature.
