Marshall wants to stay, but won’t discuss future

Brandon Marshall has no plans to hang up his cleats at the end of this season.

“Physically, I feel like I can play well into my mid30s, so obviously no plans on retiring, no plans on switching teams,” Marshall, who turns 33 in March, said on a conference call Monday. “Would love to stay here and retire as a Jet. So I’ve just got to continue to focus on what I can control. Lead where I can, on and off the field.”

Marshall has had a down season, catching 49 passes for 668 yards and three touchdowns. The Jets could save $7.5 million against the cap by cutting him after the season. That has led to questions of whether the team would bring him back in 2017.

“You never know in this business,” Marshall said.

Marshall never has been to the playoffs in his 11-year career. He was asked if he would want to stay with the Jets next year if they are a young, rebuilding team.

“I’d rather stay away from that type of question,” Marshall said. “Obviously, that’s a way a team can go. As of right now, we’re still in this season with this group of guys. I’ll choose to focus on that. I don’t want to really deal with the what-ifs.

“It’s a fair question to ask me about my future. Like I said, it comes with the territory, this type of environment, but to continue to go down this path of, ‘Is this guy going to be here?’ or ‘Is this guy going to be here?’ I don’t think that’s fair to me. I don’t think that’s fair to anybody in this organization who puts so much into this every single day to try to deliver. I don’t want to entertain that, really.” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Monday he ex- pects quarterback Andrew Luck to practice fully Wednesday and play against the Jets this week. Luck missed Thursday’s game against the Steelers with a concussion.

The Jets are taking some heat on social media for a play in Sunday’s 22-17 loss on which Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount cut back across the field and quarterback Tom Brady ran in front of him like a lead blocker. No one on the Jets took a free shot at Brady. Jets coach Todd Bowles said he is fine with that.

“I would like to have seen someone make the tackle and tackle the guy with the ball, not the guy without the ball,” Bowles said.

Safety Calvin Pryor suffered a concussion on Sunday.
