The former Ravens wide receiver announced Saturday that he is signing with the Jets, adding a boost to New York’s receiving corps. Mason announced the decision in a statement and added that he’s “looking forward to working under Rex and rejoining some familiar faces.” After choosing the Jets over the Ravens and Titans, he wrote on his Twitter page: “Jet fuel is full time to fly!!!!” Terms of the deal were not immediately available, and the team had yet to make an announcement regarding Mason.

CowgirlsFan Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 He killed my team in the last game at Texas Stadium. Now he has a chance to do it again on September 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 The dude is 37. I'll give him credit for what he has accomplished (and he had a 61/802/7 season last year in BAL) but at some point age is going to catch up with him. Not sure he's a downgrade from Edwards though. Braylon's numbers last year were 53/904/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I wouldn't be shocked to see him cut before the season. He's got very little left in the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braylon's numbers last year were 53/904/7. His numbers have been dropping steadily for the past 4 years. And at 37 years old, that's not a good trend. Not to mention he has to learn a new system, quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
