"I'm going to be able to contribute at a high level, and this is what I'm going to be able to give you: 45 catches throughout the year, 20 to 30 plays a game, and I'm going to give you eight touchdowns," said the 39-year-old ex-wide receiver.
The six-time Pro Bowl selection also mentioned that he intends to return as a tight end, a role he never played during his career.
Marshall was drafted by the Denver Broncos in the fourth round of the 2006 NFL Draft. He played for the New York Jets from 2015 to 2016 and co-led the league in receiving touchdowns in 2015. He also holds the NFL record for most receptions in a game with 21.
Despite his respectable career, Marshall never had the chance to play in the postseason.
