Former Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver DeSean Jackson is in talks to become the head coach of the Delaware State football program, sources have revealed. The 38-year-old, who retired officially in 2023, has always dreamt of coaching at a historically Black college or university (HBCU), and this opportunity could soon become a reality.
Jackson, known for his successful career with the Eagles where he made the Pro Bowl three times, is set to replace Lee Hull, who was recently dismissed after two disappointing seasons. The news of Jackson potentially taking on the head coaching role was first reported by Victory Formation Media.
During his time with the Eagles, Jackson achieved impressive statistics ranking third in receiving yards, sixth in receptions, and ninth in receiving touchdowns. His success as a punt returner also saw him finish second in punt returns, third in punt return yards, and tied for the team’s all-time lead in punt return touchdowns. With his experience and accomplishments in the NFL, Jackson could bring valuable insights and expertise to the Delaware State football program.
The agreement is currently being finalized, and fans are eager to see Jackson transition from a stellar player on the field to a leader on the sidelines. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
