Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson continues to work to honor the memory of his father.  On June 6th, he will host the DeSean Jackson Foundation Celebrity Golf Tournament. 

Jackson’s event will benefit The Sol Goldman Pancreatic Research Center in addition to his own foundation.  In 2009, his father Bill Jackson passed away from pancreatic cancer. 

The tournament will be held at The Golf Club at Lansdowne in Virginia and registration begins at 11:30 a.m.  There will be a dinner, awards ceremony, and silent auction included with the 18 holes of golf.

Confirmed NFL stars scheduled to attend include Robert Griffin III, Michael Vick, and LeSean McCoy.  Information on tickets and sponsorship opportunities can be found at DeSeanJacksonFoundation.org. 

Jackson is a three-time Pro Bowler and was a first-team All-Pro in 2009.  In his first season with the Redskins, he went for 1,169 yards and six touchdowns. 

The Philadelphia Eagles originally selected him out of Cal in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft.  Jackson was a two-time All-American and All-Pac 10 selection for the Golden Bears.
