Redskins DeSean Jackson Sports Anti-Cop CRIME TAPE Cleats

Redskins star wide receiver, DeSean Jackson, plans to take the field on Sunday wearing anti-cop crime tape themed cleats.

Jackson commissioned artist Marcus Rivero, aka, SolesBySir, to craft the yellow crime tape design on his cleats in protest of the deaths of African Americans by police officers.

We reached out to Jackson for a comment … and were told “I’ve seen enough yellow caution tape and it’s time for a stand and a change in our community and society.” “Senseless killings have been ongoing for awhile and police brutality in our black community … and as a young black leader with a stage and platform I’m starting awareness to help prevent these killings, and hopefully get justice to these cops who have taken lives of innocent human beings.” Jackson says he doesn’t just want justice, but also “a change with the decision making on these cop killings.” “I am also coming up with a master plan to start a movement” with the intention of making a real impact. h/t tmz

TMZ reports Jackson plans to wear the cap-hating cleats during pregame warmups tomorrow and possibly during the game.
