Dustin Keller "100 percent does not want" to be franchise tagged in the offseason.
"I signed a five year deal, that's what I agreed to. To make somebody play a one year deal to something they never agreed to is crazy to me. It's not legal in any other business, so it's still, it's just crazy to me. So no, I definitely don't want to be franchised," said Keller. Keller has played in just eight games this season, posting 317 yards and two touchdowns on 28 catches. The franchise tag figure for a tight end this upcoming offseason is $5.962 million. Keller and S LaRon Landry seem to be the most likely options for the Jets' franchise tag in 2013.
