Despite his limited role this season, Baltimore Ravens veteran wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh said he likes playing in Baltimore and would consider returning next season depending on how he would be utilized. "I'll worry about next year when it comes," Houshmandzadeh said. "I've never been one to look ahead when it comes to situations like that. I'll worry about that when it comes. I like being here. I like being in the locker room, but there's a lot of things I've thought about. I like being here, I really do. "Once the season ends, one, are we going to be playing football? How many games will we play? Will it be a full season or a full offseason? And, two, you don't know what will happen. That's the most important thing, what do they have in mind for me." Houshmandzadeh said it won't necessarily be a financial decision. It will come down to what the Ravens envision for him on the field, if anything. There are scenarios where the Ravens could bring back Houshmandzadeh. It will hinge heavily on what they do with Derrick Mason, who's under contract for next season. "That has really nothing to do with looking out for my family because financially I'm alright," he said. "It won't be a financial decision for me. My family likes it out here. My kids they like it out here and they're used to me getting the ball and being a part of games. That's an adjustment to them. I got to explain things to them. "It's will be, 'What's my role on the tem going to be?' That's it. I just want to know what it is. They might not want me. You never know. It's complicated. It's like you want a girl in high school, but if she don't want you there's nothing you can do about it. I'm not the only decision-maker when it comes to that." Source: Carroll County Times
"That's the most important thing, what do they have in mind for me." How's that title misleading? Housh ought to just shut up and be happy he's on a team...
