DeSean Jackson sat at his locker with what looked to be a 10-pound bag of ice taped to his right shoulder. His head ached from a concussion, so there would be no interviews during the cobweb cleaning.
He had just played his best game with the Bucs on Sunday: five targets, five catches for 146 yards, including touchdowns of 58 and 36 yards. He averaged just over 29 yards a reception.
Jackson's former team, the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, will be at Raymond James Stadium in five days.
But Jackson faces a week of MRIs and independent neurologists evaluating him under concussion protocol.
