Decorated receiver DeSean Jackson - who last played for the Baltimore Ravens - hinted in an Instagram post Saturday that his career is over.

Now 36, Jackson wrote "Did it my way 15 years strong!! Neva anotha like it! #0ne0fone," which feels like a message someone would write when contemplating retirement.

A second-round pick out of Cal in 2008, Jackson will most be remembered for his two stints with the Philadelphia Eagles if his career is indeed over. 

In parts of eight seasons with the Eagles, Jackson caught 379 passes for 6,512 yards and 35 touchdowns. He also had stints with the Washington franchise, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Rams, Las Vegas Raiders and the Baltimore Ravens.

The Los Angeles native joined the Ravens for the 2022 season after a one-year stint with the Las Vegas Raiders. While in Baltimore, Jackson registered nine catches on 17 targets for 153 yards in seven games played.

Jackson probably won't end up in the Hall of Fame, but he's definitely one of the best deep threats that the NFL has ever seen. In total, Jackson will finish his career with 641 catches for 11,263 receiving yards and 17.6 average yards per reception - good enough for 37th on the NFL all-time receiving yards list, sandwiched between the still-active DeAndre Hopkins and Chad Johnson.
