Now that quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is back in the fold for the Jets thanks to the new one-year, $12 million contract he signed on Wednesday night, Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall thinks he's going to have a good 2016 NFL season. A great season. A better season than...Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown?!
Even though Brown recorded 136 receptions, 1,834 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns during the 2015 NFL season while Marshall recorded 109 receptions, 1,502 receiving yards, and 14 touchdowns during the same span, Marshall is confident that he's going to eclipse Brown, who has transformed himself into arguably the most talented offensive player in the entire NFL. And on Wednesday night, Marshall put his money where his mouth is by showing off his Porsche on Instagram and then telling Brown he can have it, if he's able to record more receiving yards than Marshall this season. The catch? Brown has to give up one of the Rolls-Royces he's always showing off on IG—which is worth significantly more than Marshall's Porsche—if Marshall is able to accomplish the feat.
Here's what the 10-year NFL veteran had to say in the IG clip:
Will Brown accept the challenge? He spoke with TMZ Sports on Thursday morning and said...maybe. Based on their respective stats, it seems like an easy bet for Brown to make. But before he commits to it, he told Marshall to call him.
"He don't really wanna do that. He just wants some PR. He too old to be doing that," Brown said, before pointing out that his Rolls is worth about $100K more than Marshall's Porsche. "If he really serious, CALL ME...I'll gladly accept. Don't internet it."
"Don't internet it"? That seems like good advice for a lot of people out there. Stay tuned to see if Marshall actually calls Brown.
