His scene lasted a few seconds longer than a deep bomb from RG3, but its apparent that DeSean Jackson is focused on life and his brand off the field as well.
As he preps for the debut of his BET reality show, Jackson made a short appearance on the debut episode of HBO’s new original series, ‘Ballers.’
He of course, played himself.
In the scene, he pops out of a Bentley at a South Beach nightclub with another current NFL star receiver, Antonio Brown. Both were blinged out of course.

Johnson had a question: “I gotta ask, who’s the most dangerous weapon in the league?”
To which Jackson replied: “Serious? What type of question is that?”
OK, what I want to know is this: Did Jackson mean it was dumb to ask because what would either one say? Or did Jackson mean, “Me, of course.” Yes,
I’m kidding here; I didn’t read deeply into the dialogue.
Jackson then asked Johnson a question about how he likes working in an office: “I know you miss playing ball, right?”
After Johnson answered, they walk past Jackson’s Bentley, prompting a lesson from the Rock (no, he’s not called that on the show; bear with me).
“Whoa! Whose Bentley? I know this ain’t a rental?” he said.
“Jackpot just caught that,” Brown said, beaming. At least I think that’s what he said; he didn’t exactly annunciate.
Johnson turned to Jackson and said, “You paid cash.”
Jackson: “Man, you know C.O.D. all day.”
Johnson: “Cash on delivery?”
Jackson: “Why not?”
Johnson: “First piece of free advice, you gotta listen. You all make millions. If it drives, flies, floats or f—-, lease it. Let’s go have fun.”
Jackson laughs a little then says, “Let’s get it.”
No word on whether the Jaccpot CEO miss OTAs to shoot those scenes.
