... star wide receiver was released later Thursday, Bowles was noncommittal earlier in the day about Marshall perhaps being cut or traded. Bowles said this: "It's not definitive that anybody will be on the roster this year." The Jets would've gotten very little to nothing in trade talks involving Marshall, who would've been entering the final year of his contract. The release clears $7.5 million in salary cap space, with no dead money attached. Richardson also is entering the final year of his contract. AP Photo. Tony Jefferson to the Jets. Expect the Jets to be interested in acquiring the free agent strong safety, who currently plays for the Cardinals, according  to a source. But the Jets surely will have competition for Jefferson. And if they do sign him in free agency, then they might trade Calvin Pryor. The former first-round pick is entering the final year of his contract in 2017, but the Jets can always tack on a fifth-year option to his rookie deal for 2018. AP ...

Should Brandon Marshall Interest The Giants

... wide receiver Brandon Marshall on Friday. The New York Giants have already released Victor Cruz and could use a proven, big-bodied wide receiver to complement Odell Beckham Jr. and Sterling Shepard. Does that make Marshall a fit for the Giants? Let’s talk about that. Marshall, 6-foot-4, 229 pounds, certainly fits the physical profile and would offer the Giants a physical presence on the outside. He certainly has the resume. Marshall is a six-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro with 941 career receptions. He has six 100-catch seasons in an 11-year career. There are, however, plenty of negatives. Marshall turns 33 this month and he is coming off a 59-catch season that marked his lowest production since a 20-catch rookie year. His next-lowest reception total for a season was 61 in 2014 with the Chicago Bears. ...

Jets Waving White Flag On 2017, So Brandon Marshall Could Be Next Cut

... likely can’t happen until March 9 because of salary-cap reasons. Safety Marcus Gilchrist could go as well. The most interesting decision on the Jets roster is what to do with wide receiver Brandon Marshall. He turns 33 on March 23 and is coming off one of his least productive seasons. He caught just 59 passes for 788 yards and three touchdowns — his worst numbers for a season in which he started at least 14 games. While Marshall’s production was off in 2016, he had a record-breaking year for the Jets in 2015 with a franchise-record 109 catches for 1,502 yards and 14 touchdowns. That leads to the Jets’ dilemma. Marshall could still be a very productive player. Do you chalk up his slip in 2016 to poor quarterback play? Were Marshall’s knee and foot injuries worse than he let on after a vicious Week 2 tackle in Buffalo. Marshall is scheduled to make $7.5 million in 2017. That is also the amount of money the Jets would save against the salary cap if he were cut ...

Jets To Release Brandon Marshall On Friday

... still play at a high level. Like Revis and Mangold, Marshall was coming off a frustrating and disappointing 2016 season. Marshall, who turns 33 later this month, caught only three touchdowns. Off the field, Marshall was at the center of some tension in the locker room as he grew frustrated with the constant losing.

Brandon Marshall To The Patriots? It Makes Sense, Says Boomer Esiason

... a " dark cloud " over the Jets in 2016, per Darrelle Revis. Quincy Enunwa said it's sometimes hard to separate Marshall's message from his delivery. "Brandon is a really passionate guy, and he's frustrated because he hasn't been to the playoffs," Esiason said. "I know he's a very opinionated guy. I know this because I work with him [on Inside the NFL]. He's not nearly as passionate there as he is on Sundays, I'm sure. "When they're getting embarrassed at halftime of a New England game or a Kansas City game, he's not afraid to voice his opinion.". If the Jets do keep Marshall, Esiason says they'll have to add a quarterback able to handle Marshall's "alpha personality." Right now, that player isn't on the roster. "If Brandon is here, and your quarterback is either Bryce Petty, Christian Hackenberg or Mike Glennon?" Esiason said, "I think you're asking a lot of that quarterback to deal with that personality at receiver. He needs a strong presence ...

New Destinations Mean New Fantasy Football Values For Brandin Cooks, Brandon Marshall

... the bidding for Cooks, or unless the Saints decide to hang on to him, expect his value to slide. Even if he went to play with Marcus Mariota in Tennessee, a promising young passer for sure, the offense would still be considered conservative and he’d almost certainly see his numbers drop. And even if he landed in a pass-leaning offense like Philadelphia’s with Carson Wentz , he’d still be far away from the rockin’ high-stat shootouts that Brees and the Saints provide. Cooks has fallen to low-end No. 2 Fantasy receiver value and a potential Round 5 pick in non-PPR. Meanwhile, his departure from N’awlins would only help the outlooks for Michael Thomas , Willie Snead and maybe even Coby Fleener because they’d theoretically get more looks from Brees. They’re still in the right place. Brandon Marshall WR / N. Y. Jets (2016 stats). ...
