Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been spotted working out with Marquise “Hollywood” Brown during the offseason. However, when cameras spotted him with Antonio Brown, the rumour mill kicked into high gear.

In a recent video, Brown and Jackson tried and failed to complete several passes. However, it appeared that the two had a whale of a time. Brown is actually a hugely controversial figure in NFL circles, since he has been accused of unspeakable acts.

This social media connection will cause many to speculate that Antonio Brown is joining Baltimore. However, the Ravens have not touched the free-agent market for wide receivers. This is because they feel that the NFL draft is the best way to improve that position group this offseason.

Why is Lamar Jackson working out with Antonio Brown?

Antonio Brown, 31, hasn’t played in an NFL game since the New England Patriots released him after a victory in Miami. The seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver is under investigation under the NFL’s personal conduct policy. This comes after his former trainer Britney Taylor filed a lawsuit. She alleged that Brown sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions, and such cases have been taken very seriously in the wake of the #MeToo movement.

The Ravens are expected to upgrade their wide receiver group in the draft; they have nine picks, including five in the first three rounds. In Baltimore’s run-heavy offense, its wide receivers totaled 115 catches last season, which were 22 fewer than any other team in the NFL. The Ravens’ top returning receivers are Marquise Brown, Willie Snead, Miles Boykin, Chris Moore, Jaleel Scott and De’Anthony Thomas.

It’s unknown how many more times Lamar Jackson will hold these workouts. In an effort to limit the spread of the coronavirus, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a statewide stay-at-home order, which will last for 30 days starting Thursday at midnight.
