The Denver Broncos have lost Tim Patrick, one of their wide receivers, for the whole season. Patrick suffered a season-ending ACL injury, and he will be heavily missed by the team. With a void in their receiving corp, the name of Antonio Brown is being floated around for the Broncos.

The Broncos have already signed WR Darrius Shepherd, who played in the USFL. He might be a great addition for the Broncos, but a move for a player like Brown will always be on the cards. Moreover, quarterback Russell Wilson is also known for being an admirer of Brown, which is why the move will make sense.

According to Brad Spielberger of Pro Football Focus: “Russell Wilson has always been a guy who pushed for Antonio Brown. He seems a little busy on a music tour, but maybe they explore some of those guys out there.”

Russell Wilson had also urged the Seattle Seahawks to bring in Brown before the WR went to the Buccaneers. It might have been the right choice for Brown, as he ended up winning the Super Bowl with Tom Brady. However, he now has a chance to join forces with ‘Mr. Unlimited’ in Denver.

Could Antonio Brown be a good fit for the Denver Broncos?

Antonio Brown has been a free agent since he was released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He hasn’t played football since then and is apparently not 100% healthy either. He is quite focused on his music career. Due to it, he has no serious intentions of returning to the league this year.

However, that could change quickly if the Denver Broncos and Russell Wilson want Brown to play for them. AB would love another chance to play in the league. He will get an opportunity to prove people wrong once again.
