According to ESPN's Josina Anderson, the New York Jets have an actual chance of trading for Brandon Marshall.
On SportsCenter, @JosinaAnderson just said the #Jets are a team to watch for Brandon Marshall.

Earlier, we discussed whether or not the team should be interested in trading for Marshall. I've said that I would love to get Marshall. He's an incredible receiver, one of the best in the game, and the way he's turned his life around from crippling borderline personality disorder is inspiring.
In addition, there's reason to trust Anderson. As pointed out below, she was the one that broke the news that Todd Bowles would become the next HC of the NYJ, as she apparently has a direct link to the man himself.
Josina Anderson is in touch with Bowles. He texted her when he was at dinner with Woody & Macc saying he was taking the job

Obviously, it's far from a done deal. I've said before that reports during this period are often false and nothing but publicity grabs as teams and agents try to gain leverage. However, this would certainly be huge if it happens. The combination of Marshall and Eric Decker would give the team its best receiving tandem in years.
