DeSean Jackson to wear No. 11 with Redskins

With his trusty No. 10 already spoken for in Washington, new Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson has decided to swap out the 0 for a 1.

Quarterback Robert Griffin III made it clear Wednesday that he would not be giving up his No. 10 to Jackson, who has worn the number for his entire six-year NFL career. Jackson was, however, able to convince wide receiver Aldrick Robinson to vacate his No. 11. 

Also swapping jerseys this season is quarterback Kirk Cousins, who will move from No. 12 to No. 8 - the number he wore at Michigan State - to allow free agent acquisition Andre Roberts to hold onto his No. 12. As part of the switch, Roberts is making a $12,000 donation to Cousins' football camp.
