Braxton Berrios and the Jets have expressed interest in an extension, but the receiver won’t give Gang Green a hometown discount after spending the past two years in New York, according to The Athletic’s Connor Hughes.
“Obviously I want to be here and I’ve said it so many different times. I do want to be here,” Berrios said in mid-February on WFAN’s Tiki & Tierney Show. “Sadly, this part is now partially business and not just football.”
Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh also sound like they want to keep Berrios around, but it all comes back to the price. It’s unclear what Berrios is asking for, but a few comparable players’ contracts paint a picture of the range the Jets should expect to pay if they want to keep him.
