The Jets are adding new toys for whoever their next Quarterback (Foles, Mariota, Geno?) may be.
Bears have agreed to trade WR Brandon Marshall to the Jets pending a physical, per league source.

Brandon Marshall will join former Bronco Eric Decker, and will likely replace former Seahawk and Viking Percy Harvin to form what looks to be a formidable receiving corps.
Broncos LB Brandon Marshall has long dealt with being the lesser known of the two NFL players that share the name, and is often confused for the aforementioned WR on twitter.
With trade winds swirling yesterday, Denver’s Marshall wanted to address the rumors.

Marshall would go on to say that he had over 800 mentions from Bears fans yesterday, this was all before any trade actually took place. Now he has another fan base tweeting at him.
So It wasn’t enough to have bears fans always blowing up my Twitter. Now I have Jets fans blowing it up.. This is a never ending journey lol — Brandon Marshall (@BMarshh54) March 6, 2015
At least he seems to have a good attitude about it. Marshall made transaction headlines of his own today, as the Broncos announced they have tendered him, Paul Cornick, and Ben Garland as exclusive rights free agents.

The Broncos Marshall may have had the better season in 2014 than his dopplenamer WR, compiling 113 takles in 14 games for Denver. Marshall will likely get a chance to start at inside linebacker under Wade Phillips’ 3-4 scheme.
