DeSean Jackson has to pay back his former agent $516,415 dollars
An arbitrator on Tuesday ruled that DeSean Jackson owes former agent Drew Rosenhaus $516,415 in unpaid loans and fees, according to ESPN.com. Rosenhaus originally sought $777,793 for “loans, interest, credit card charges and insurance premiums.” Rosenhaus filed the grievance in June 2013, shortly after he was fired by Jackson.
Jackson intends on appealing the decision, which was handed down by arbitrator Roger Kaplan, but will probably lose.
Jackson recently signed a three-year deal worth $24 million ($16 million guaranteed) with the Washington Redskins, so the guys should not be complaining. He should run to pay Drew his money, but this is another reason some teams stayed away from D-Jax when he was released a few days ago.
