Washington Redskins receiver DeSean Jackson was released from the Philadelphia Eagles after Chip Kelly’s first season in 2014.  Jackson said the Eagles tried to run a “smear campaign” against him, accusing him of being gang affiliated and more.  Most thought it was done to ease criticism about the team cutting a good receiver.  Fast forward to now and the Eagles have fired coach Chip Kelly.  Jackson has one word for the twist, “karma”.

“I’m a firm believer that bad karma comes back on you,” Jackson told The MMQB.com in an article published Friday.

“When you ruin a team like that, you do things to peoples’ families, you release people, you trade people, you get rid of good players who build something with the community, with the fans, with the kids — to have a guy come in and change up the team like that, I just believe in karma,” Jackson told The MMQB.com.

“I don’t have any bad words to say about [Kelly] as far as what he feels he needs on his roster. But the guys that were on that roster created something special, from Jeremy Maclin to LeSean McCoy to Trent Cole to Todd Herremans and myself and Brandon Boykin — it goes on and on and on. When we were there, we were a brotherhood. So for everyone to go their separate ways and to see how it all ended up, it’s a very sad thing.”

The Washington Redskins won the NFC East over the Philadelphia Eagles and now Jackson is gearing up for Sunday’s NFC Wild Card game against the Green Bay Packers.
