Most fans and media members alike figured Bucs wide receiver DeSen Jackson had played his last game for Tampa Bay in 2018.
Not so fast my friend.
According to Ian Rapoport, that may not be the case.
From @gmfb Weekend: New #Bucs coach Bruce Arians is planning to re-recruit WR DeSean Jackson with hopes that he wants to stay in Tampa. BA does love a good downfield threat pic.twitter.com/aqXHy193mu

How successful Arians will be is still up in the air, but as described by many who talked about the former Cardinals coach over the last week after he was hired in Tampa Bay, Arians is an outside the box thinker. Keeping a player who asked to be traded, was late for or slept in meetings and sulked when he didn’t have things go his way is certainly outside the box thinking. but just maybe it works.
Stay tuned Bucs fans.
