The New England Patriots brought cornerback J.C. Jackson back on Wednesday in a trade with the Los Angeles Chargers and before he suited up for the team a new report shed light on just how fractured the relationship with his former squad was.<\/p>\n

The Chargers eked out a win over the Las Vegas Raiders last week and Jackson was active but did not play. The NFL Network reported that the defensive back “repeatedly refused” to go into the game even when a teammate was hobbling a bit.<\/p>\n

Jackson reportedly told coaches he wasn\u2019t “warm enough” to play in the game. It appeared to be the last straw.<\/p>\n

He hadn\u2019t played since the second week of the season. After he was a healthy scratch in Week 3, Jackson said at the time he was confused why he wasn\u2019t playing.<\/p>\n

“I kind of knew what was going on. I\u2019m still confused on why,” Jackson said after the Minnesota Vikings game. “I can\u2019t put my opinion on it. It was a coach decision. It\u2019s not my team. I can tell you I\u2019m confused and I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on. But that\u2019s not the real answer of why I didn\u2019t play or why I didn\u2019t start. That\u2019s above me.”<\/p>\n

Jackson signed a five-year, $82.5 million deal before the start of the 2022 season. He played 85 of the team\u2019s 132 defensive snaps before he was made inactive and later didn\u2019t play last week.<\/p>\n

He only played in seven games for the Chargers between 2022 and this season. With the Patriots, he was a Pro Bowler and was on the team when they won the Super Bowl in 2018.<\/p>\n
