Braxton Berrios and the Jets have started discussions on a new contract, he revealed during his Wednesday interview with Pardon My Take.
"We've talked," Berrios said.
The 26-year-old wide receiver, who is set to become a free agent, added that he is "indifferent" about where he plays in 2022.
"I don't look at it as, like, 'Oh, I want to go to this division or this conference,'" Berrios said. "That's not where my head's at, at least."
A fourth-year pro during the 2021 campaign, Berrios caught 46 passes for 431 yards (9.4 average) and two touchdowns in 16 games (one start). He rounded out his production with seven rushes for 40 yards (5.7 average) and two touchdowns.
Berrios earned first-team All-Pro status as a kick returner after turning 28 attempts into 852 yards (30.4 average) and one touchdown. The 5-foot-9, 190-pounder spent the past two seasons (2019-20) with Gang Green but produced a breakout 2021 campaign under first-year head coach Robert Saleh's staff.
"Truly, truly, I think they're heading in a very good direction," Berrios said. "I love the coaching staff there. Most of 'em, they're young, they know what they're doing, communicate well and Saleh is a phenomenal coach."
Berrios has stated before that he loves being a Jet. At the same time, his upcoming decision amounts to more than comfortability.
"Well, it's two sides," Berrios said. "We'll see what happens. We'll see what happens."
