New York Jets owner Woody Johnson told the media on Sunday that the team was interested in acquiring Philadelphia Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson "at the right price," according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.

Johnson expressed concern about whether Jackson would fit "into the culture of our locker room" and also hinted that the team might prefer to wait for the Eagles to cut the Pro-Bowl receiver.

The Eagles began shopping Jackson after he made clear that he did not wish to restructure his contract, which is set to pay him $10.5 million in 2014.
