DeSean Jackson to have surgery, likely done for the season

Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson, who has missed most of the season with an abdominal injury but attempted to return in Week 9 against the Chicago Bears, is having surgery tomorrow to repair his core muscle injury and could miss the rest of the season, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. Eagles beat reporter John Clark adds that Jackson tore the abdominal muscle completely off the bone yesterday and is expected to miss at least 4-6 weeks. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
While this injury is worse than the one Jackson initially suffered in Week 2, the timetable that Clark shared would mean that he might be able to return before the end of the regular season. For fantasy purposes, however, this is disappointing news right when it looked like Jackson was close to returning.
