They penalized Jackson the same way they penalized Riley Cooper who was caught on video saying the N word. In that case Cooper was fined an undisclosed amount but allowed to stay on the team.

Bottom line is the Eagles treated the black and the white player the same way when they said offensive things.

No they didn't. The Eagles sent Cooper to sensitivity training, drop us a line when you learn exactly how Jackson will be punished.

This is 2020. If you think Riley Cooper wouldn’t be driven out of the league today I don’t know what to tell you.

DeSean Jackson didn’t just flippantly use a racial slur, he was advocating Nazi-like anti semitism.

Apples and oranges and an entirely different climate.
