Jets' Marshall challenges Steelers' Brown to friendly wager of luxury automobiles

Brandon Marshall just put even more pressure on himself and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.

On Wednesday, the Jets receiver issued a friendly wager on social media to the Steelers' stud receiver Antonio Brown.

The prize? High-priced luxury automobiles.

"If you have more receiving yards than me, I'll give you the Porsche," Marshall said in the 42-second clip, which was shot next to a white Porsche parked outside of the entrance to the Jets facility. "If I have more receiving yards than you, then you've gotta give me the Rolls-Royce."

Last month, Porsche signed a deal to become the Jets' official sports car and luxury brand _ the first of its kind for the auto company.

Brown, meanwhile, has a well-known affinity for Rolls-Royces. In July 2015, the Steelers wideout had a custom-created car with Pittsburgh's colors and his signature on the side. In February, he sported another custom design, this time in gold.

But on Thursday morning, Brown posted a photo to Instagram of his newest model: A black and yellow Rolls-Royce with a "stars on stars" theme. He plans to roll up to training camp on Thursday in the "galaxy-inspired" car.

In the caption to the video, Marshall wrote: "I've never seen you back down from a challenge."
