"After leading the Eagles with eight catches for 88 yards – and nearly pulling off another miraculous punt return – in Sunday night's improbable (is that strong enough? ... see story) 17-10 win over the Giants, DeSean Jackson strapped a walking boot on his right ankle.
Early in the second quarter, Jackson made a diving 32-yard reception and briefly left with what was announced as a knee injury. After the game head coach Andy Reid said Jackson had gotten his "knee and his head checked, but everything checked out OK."
What's with the boot?
"A player stepped on my foot," Jackson said. "It's just a kind of a little sprain or whatever. It will be all right. The biggest thing is we got the win.""
