DeSean Jackson: EA Sports Cover Boy
Eagles rookie DeSean Jackson has been selected for the cover of NCAA Football 09 for the Playstation 2. Apparently EA picked a different cover athlete for each version of the game. Darren McFadden will be on the cover of XBox 360, Matt Ryan will be on the Playstation 3 box. It's an honor for Jackson for sure, but too bad he was chosen for the Playstation 2.

Oakland Raiders Shocker: Rhodes released
After hauling in Darren McFadden, you had to know that the Raiders weren’t going to keep all of their veteran running backs on the roster. The consensus pick to be released by the Raiders was Lamont Jordan. The shocker is that Dominic Rhodes is the first back to be released by the Oakland Raiders.
