WR Marshall says Jets will be his last stop

New York Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall, acquired in a trade this offseason, has no desire to play for another team in his career.

In fact, the five-time Pro Bowl veteran made it clear he would retire before going to another team, saying the Jets uniform will be the last one he wears.

“If I’m cut tomorrow. I’ll retire. This will be my last team. After Jets I’m done,” Marshall tweeted while answering questions from his Twitter followers late Thursday night.

In May, the Jets reworked the Marshall’s contract after acquiring him in March from the Chicago Bears. The maximum value of Marshall’s amended contract is $26 million over the next three seasons, up from $24.3 million, including an additional $1.3 million in guarantees.

Marshall has moved from Denver to Miami to Chicago and now to the Jets over the course of his nine-year career.

Marshall, 31, caught 61 passes for 721 yards in 13 games last season, marking his lowest production since his rookie season in 2006. He caught eight touchdowns and his 6-foot-4, 230-pound frame will be a welcome addition to the Jets’ receiving corps.

The Bears acquired Marshall from the Miami Dolphins for two third-round draft picks in 2012. Reunited with Jay Cutler, who had been his quarterback in Denver as well, Marshall caught 218 passes for 2,803 yards and 23 touchdowns in his first two seasons in Chicago.
