If the New York Jets want to retain outspoken free agent cornerback Antonio Cromartie, it's apparently going to cost them.
Cromartie told Sirius NFL Radio that he won't be giving out any hometown discounts when it comes to making a decision on where he'll play this fall.
“I would love to be a Jet at the end of the day,” Cromartie said, according to the New York Post. “But I also want to go out and see what the market is and see what my value is. At the end of the day, to me there is no such thing as no hometown discount. I’m not giving anybody no hometown discount. I’m definitely going to see what the organization says and then also let them know I would like to go out and test the market and see what my value is.”
Who's Cromartie interested in playing for?
Well, if he leaves the Jets, Cromartie mentioned the Houston Texans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals, Dallas Cowboys and the Oakland Raiders.
“I love the organization,” Cromartie said. “They’re a first-class organization that has always been there for their players. They’re all about their players. The chemistry that I built with my teammates there it was above nine.
"For me it would be a great opportunity to be back there and to play alongside [Darrelle] Revis and to play in that defense I’ve been a part of. Rex Ryan is a great coach and I love playing for him.”
