NFL Star Receiver DeSean Jackson Now Driving a C8 Corvette Stingray with Matching Forgiatos

NFL veteran DeSean Jackson may be looking for a new home for the ’23 season, but in the meantime, he can at least enjoy himself in his new ride – a Rapid Blue 2021 Corvette Stingray convertible.

The wide receiver was released earlier this month by the Baltimore Ravens, but he’s also played for several other teams since being drafted in 2008 by the Philadelphia Eagles. Also on his resume have been the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Los Angeles Rams, and Las Vegas Raiders.

Jackson – who played his college ball for the University of California-Berkeley – bought his mid-engine Corvette on Jan. 21 from a San Diego dealer named Champion Motoring / Instagram.

The car, which includes the top-of-the-line 3LT package with a Tension Blue/Twilight Blue interior, black nacelles, and full-length dual racing Carbon Flash Metallic racing stripes, has been driven just 5,000 miles.

Jackson added his own personal touches, swapping the stock wheels for larger 22-inch aftermarket wheels from Forgiato in black with Rapid Blue accents.

The Corvette joins another very nice car in Jackson’s stable – a black Mercedes-Maybach S-Class he purchased in February 2022.

Champion Motoring bills itself as “a provider of exotics to athletes and affluent connoisseurs,” including other sales this month to rapper Nelly (a Rolls-Royce Cullinan) and Houston Texans’ Derek Stingley Jr. (Lamborghini Urus).
