Just when you thought all the drama J.C. Jackson drama was over with following the Chargers trading him back to New England this past week, more details of his troubled timeline have emerged.
According to NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero, Jackson refused to enter the game against the Raiders, reportedly standing on the sideline with his shoe laces untied. Even with his then-teammates being hobbled by injuries, Jackson wouldn’t budge. It was the apparent final straw in an otherwise extremely expensive mistake by the Chargers who signed Jackson to a five-year, $82.5 million free agent deal just a year and a half ago.
