DeSean Jackson Goes Public With New Girlfriend in Racy Photos

Ex-NFL star DeSean Jackson made quite the splash when going public with his new girlfriend via racy photos posted to Instagram.

The former wide receiver, who retired last year after 15 years in the NFL, turned up in photos posted by entrepreneur Yahaira Sandoval of her Turks and Caicos vacation. Several images in the carousel show Sandoval posing in a cowboy hat and red, white, and blue bikini on a dock, in the surf, and on a flotation device. Another shows her being held by a female friend.

But fans were struck by the sixth photo in the series, which shows Sandoval straddling Jackson on a flotation device while sharing a passionate kiss.

“Baddest,” Jackson commented on the post, along with a red heart and fire emoji.

Fans were thrilled to see Sandoval and Jackson together. “That’s right girl, get your MAN!” one commenter enthused. “This ain’t Texas, this Turks lil babbyyyyyy,” another added.

“Nobody ain’t going to Turks doing what you do,” another said.

Before Thursday’s photo dump, Jackson and Sandoval had not been reported as dating.

Jackson is recently separated from his wife, Kayla Phillips, with whom he shares two children. Sandoval, the CEO of the Los Angeles-based beauty salon BloomGlam, has previously been romantically linked to Floyd Mayweather.

During his NFL tenure, Jackson accumulated 11,263 yards and 58 receiving touchdowns and played for five separate teams, including the Philadelphia Eagles and the Baltimore Ravens.
