Antonio Brown be given some other chance in the NFL? Here are four teams that could utilise WR assistance in 2022

Antonio Brownish may never play some other down in the NFL after leaving the field in the centre of Sunday'due south game for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who officially released the broad receiver on Thursday. Chocolate-brown has had enough of chances to stick effectually in the league, yet he has had a controversial exit from all of the four teams he's played for in his 12-year career.

Does Brownish deserve another opportunity in the NFL afterward his latest actions? He may become another chance regardless. Per CBS Sports NFL Insider Josina Anderson, Brown has some other job playing wide receiver in the NFL if he wants one. Basically, some team will take a take a chance at Dark-brown fifty-fifty with all his transgressions.

Based on his play on the field, Dark-brown has had a Hall of Fame career. He's the only player in NFL history with vi consecutive seasons of 100 catches and the only player to accept six straight seasons of 100 catches and 1,000 receiving yards (Marvin Harrison is the closest with four straight). Brown has recorded 928 catches for 12,291 yards and 83 touchdowns — making seven Pro Bowls and earning beginning-team All-Pro honors four times. Dark-brown had 42 catches for 545 yards and iv touchdowns in just vii games in 2021 (with three 100-1000 games), and then he's been productive when really playing.

Distractions bated, teams seem to accept an interest in adding Brown to their roster whenever he becomes bachelor. Head autobus Bruce Arians said afterwards Sunday'southward game that Brown is "no longer a Buc," only  teams that have an involvement in him wouldn't exist able to use him until next flavor at the earliest.

These four teams could utilise Brown in 2022, all of which announced to have had prior interest in Brown at some point.

Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens showed interest in Brown before he signed with the Buccaneers in 2020, back when Baltimore had one of the worst broad receiver groups in the NFL. Baltimore has improved at the position since, starting with the emergence of Marquise Brownish (who is Chocolate-brown'due south cousin) and the progress of rookie Rashod Bateman.

If Baltimore wants a veteran wideout to pair with its young receivers, Brown could fit the mold. The Ravens practise accept a solid pass communicable grouping, however, starting with Mark Andrews at tight end, so mayhap they pass on pursuing Chocolate-brown this time around.

Seattle Seahawks

The Seahawks were another team interested in signing Brown before he went to the Buccaneers. Russell Wilson, who has worked out with Brown for several offseasons, has vouched for him in the by, saying the Seahawks have the culture to piece of work with him and that Seattle "is a place that he'll grow a lot as a homo besides."

If the Seahawks have an interest in keeping Wilson beyond this season, perhaps bringing Brownish in will be a style for Wilson to stick around. Brown also may end up going wherever Wilson goes if Wilson has a say in the personnel he wants for his offense.

Washington Football Team

Before Brown'south blow-upward with the Raiders and all the problems that have ensued since Washington had an interest in trading for him after the 2018 season. Washington didn't seem to mind Brownish'due south spats with Ben Roethlisberger and the coaching staff, but would the Football Squad feel the aforementioned way with Ron Rivera in accuse? Washington does need help at broad receiver exterior of Terry Mclaurin, who is the only laissez passer catcher with over 400 yards on the Football Squad this twelvemonth.

New Orleans Saints

The Saints always seem to exist in the marketplace for a veteran wide receiver, signing notable names like Dez Bryant, Kenny Stills and Chris Hogan over the last few years as more feel for young broad receiver groups. None of those signings panned out, but the Saints have tried to bring in veterans to assistance out Michael Thomas (who didn't play this season due to injury).

The Saints may take a look at Brown as New Orleans was 4-ii before Jameis Winston tore his ACL and was lost for the season. Bringing in Brown may exist plenty to give New Orleans an border in beating the Buccaneers (which they do in the regular season anyway) and repossess the division. Given the uncertainty of Thomas' injury, signing Brown would be a like movement to those the Saints have tried to brand in the by.

New Orleans doesn't have a single receiver over 700 yards this flavour, but is Brown even worth the adventure? Brown did workout with the Saints in 2019, but he called it a "publicity stunt." That may have ruffled the feathers of head autobus Sean Payton, who may not want to give him some other run a risk.

Brown may want to sign with the Saints for the opportunity to confront the Buccaneers twice a year, simply that opportunity with New Orleans, similar many other teams, may accept passed.
