Brandon Marshall

Jets' Brandon Marshall could be fit for Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens are looking to add a possession wide receiver, assistant general manager Eric DeCosta said.

What It Means:

"I think we're looking for a guy that can catch the ball, move the chains and get critical first downs when needed," DeCosta said. New York Jets veteran wide receiver Brandon Marshall would seem to fit that description, and The Baltimore Sun's Jeff Zrebiec has already written the Ravens "would at least inquire" if the Jets release him. Baltimore also has a long history of signing veteran receivers at the tail end of their careers, so this could fit well.

Among the 41 receivers with at least 100 targets in 2016, Marshall's Reception Net Expected Points per target of 0.58 ranked sixth-worst. He also struggled to find the end zone, scoring just three times after turning in 45 combined touchdowns over the previous four seasons.
