The sexual assault and rape lawsuit filed to New England Patriots wide receiver Antonio Brown has another wrinkle. There is a mention that another football player was with Brown on one of the instances where an alleged illegal incident took place.
According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, that player is Baltimore Ravens rookie Marquise Brown, the cousin of Antonio. Said Florio:
“Marquise Brown, the cousin of Antonio Brown, faces no accusations. But Marquise Brown surely will be interviewed by the NFL to determine any information that he may have regarding anything he witnessed on the evening in May 2018 when Antonio Brown allegedly raped Britney Taylor.
Marquise Brown is expected to give information that will support his cousin’s position. His relationship with Antonio becomes an obvious issue when it comes to whether Marquise’s version should be accepted without reservation.”
As Florio notes, the rookie Brown isn't at large. The NFL just wants information. If Marquise was with Antonio during an incident, the will undoubtedly look into that. There are no indications to believe Marquise is in any trouble with the league, instead, he could clear up some information.
Both of the Browns played on Sunday. Both are on new teams. Antonio, after his trade to the Oakland Raiders and then release, tallied four receptions for 56 yards and a touchdown in his Patriots debut. Marquise played his second game as a Raven after scorching Big-12 defenses last year as an Oklahoma Sooner. He finished his second NFL game with eight receptions for 86 yards.
