Wide receiver DeSean Jackson was released by the Philadelphia Eagles after speculation of his gang affiliations. Jackson has since denied the accusations and many people have come to his defense. One special person who came out for Jackson was Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman.
Sherman knows what this situation feels like after he was publicly referred to as thug following his Super Bowl incident with Michael Crabtree. Sherman reached out to Jackson not only because he was familiar with the situation but also because the two have a history together that goes way back to their little league team.
