The NFL suspended Brown for “multiple violations of the league’s personal conduct policy” back in July. He’ll be eligible to play in Week 9.
If Brown does end up in Seattle, Russell Wilson will be getting yet another weapon alongside both DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. If Brown is healthy and finds his former form, the one-two punch of Brown and Metcalf could be a real problem for defenses around the NFL.
Brown last caught a pass in the NFL on Sept. 15 when he made his lone appearance for the Dolphins. The former sixth-round pick has seven seasons in which he’s recorded at least 1,000 yards receiving.
