Got a couple of Twitter/e-mail questions on Monday involving events that happened on Monday that are worth quickly reviewing here. Specifically, the future of running back Fred Jackson, and whether the new deal for Philadelphia safety Malcolm Jenkins would impact Kam Chancellor.
First, Fred Jackson.
NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport reported Monday that Jackson, who turned 35 last week, wants to keep playing.
So is there a chance the Seahawks would still be interested?
I’ve heard nothing definitely but my guess is probably not.
Jackson, recall, was signed to fulfill a specific need at a specific time, that as third-down back and emergency backup, brought in right before the season was to begin after the injury that shelved Robert Turbin and eventually resulted in his waiving (with an injury settlement).
