Feb. 5, 2013 - 2:35 PM ET
Philly Mag's Birds 24/7 blog agrees that DeSean Jackson is almost "guaranteed" to have a different role in new coach Chip Kelly's offense.
D-Jax expects to be used like Oregon's De'Anthony Thomas, as a dynamic all-purpose player who handles the football in four different ways. Beat writer Sheil Kapadia agrees that Jackson will no longer be strictly a deep threat; he'll see more action on screens and "could see touches out of the backfield as well." We'll know more about Jackson's role in camp and preseason games.
