Jets WR Edwards wants to finish career in New York

[February 04, 2010]  FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -- Braylon Edwards says he hopes to finish his career with the New York Jets, amid a published report that the team will tender an offer to him after the season.

Newsday, citing an anonymous source, reported Wednesday that the Jets plan to place a contract tender on Edwards, a restricted free agent in March, that would require a team to give New York first- and third-round picks.

Edwards says he hasn't heard that report, but reiterated comments from earlier in the season that he wants to remain a member of the Jets beyond this season. He was traded from Cleveland to New York at the end of October.

Edwards, a former first-round pick out of Michigan, has four catches for 56 yards in the Jets' two postseason games.
