The support from fellow players for former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson continued on Saturday, with Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman coming to Jackson's defense.
Sherman tweeted out a message of encouragement for Jackson, alluding to the Eagles decision to release the three-time Pro Bowler, reportedly based in part on who Jackson hangs out with away from the field.
Included in the tweet was a photo from Sherman's childhood when he and Jackson were teammates in Little League baseball. Check it out below.
@DeseanJackson10 and me have been boys since we were kids... No one should be judged by the actions of others! #fam pic.twitter.com/Q7yuxMcz6a
