Brandon Marshall tweets that Jets 'will be my last team'
Wide receiver Brandon Marshall says the New York Jets will be the last team he will play for in the NFL.
Marshall commented on his future while answering questions from fans on Twitter on Thursday night.
When he was asked what team he expects to retire with, Marshall responded: “If I'm cut tomorrow, I'll retire. This will be my last team.”
New York acquired Marshall from the Chicago Bears in March for a fifth-round pick. In May, he signed a three-year, $26 million restructured contract, adding $1.3 million in cap space for the team.

Marshall was also asked by another fan how many more seasons he expects to play. Marshall responded, “After Jets, I’m done.”
Last season, the 31-year-old Marshall caught 61 passes for 721 yards for Chicago, his lowest totals since 2006. He also added eight touchdowns.
In nine seasons with the Denver Broncos, Miami Dolphins and Chicago, the five-time Pro Bowl receiver has 773 catches for 9,771 yards and 65 touchdowns.
