Eagles president Harry Gamble said yesterday that he had rejected a written contract-extension proposal made for holdout tight end Keith Jackson.
The proposal, from agent Gary Wichard, represented the team's first communication with Jackson since the two-time all-pro refused to report for the start of training camp, Gamble said. Jackson is seeking an extension of a four-year contract that has two years remaining.
Gamble said the proposal called for a signing bonus, reportedly of $1.5 million, plus significant salary increases.
