On Monday, it was reported by Adam Schefter of ESPN that Baltimore was bringing in veteran wide receiver DeSean Jackson for a visit. Just one day later, it’s been reported by multiple outlets that the Ravens are in agreement on a deal with Jackson, and he’ll join the team in hopes of resurrecting his career by providing big plays using what’s left of his speed and playmaking ability.
