Jackson was in Miami all week, leaving Philadelphia a few hours after cleaning out his locker from the Eagles practice facility following their playoff loss to New Orleans last week. The wide receiver tweeted on Saturday after discoviering the robbery.
A police spokeswoman says that no arrests have been made but the investigation is still on going. Earlier in the week, Jackson expressed his desire to renegotiate his current contract with the Eagles. The six-year veteran just finished the second season in a five-year deal. Jackson is scheduled to earn $10.5 million in 2014.
