The Seattle Seahawks are looking to get back into Super Bowl contention, but one potential weakness could be at the wide receiver position. After losing Doug Baldwin to retirement this offseason, the Seahawks are going to be relying on Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, and other young wide receivers to fill the hole. Antonio Brown could be a name to keep an eye on in Seattle.
According to SportsLine, the Seahawks are among the top five teams with the best odds to land Brown.
Now that Antonio Brown has been released by the Raiders, which team will he play his first game with in 2019?
Patriots: 2/1
49ers: 5/1
Packers: 6/1
Cardinals: 7/1
Seahawks: 9/1
Ravens: 12/1
Giants: 16/1
Dolphins: 18/1
Steelers 25/1 pic.twitter.com/J1Rnc5kwHo— SportsLine (@SportsLine) September 7, 2019
Brown to Seattle would make a lot of sense. While he comes with some bagging and character concerns, the Seahawks have never had an issue taking a gamble to put a better team on the field. Russell Wilson has never had a receiver with the kind of talent that Brown possesses.
Pete Carroll would love to have a guy with Brown's talent on his roster, but he may not be about the drama that it would bring. He is a no-nonsense kind of guy. On the other hand, the Seahawks could feel like they can help Brown return to normal and give him a fresh start.
Either way, this pairing would be an incredibly intriguing duo to watch. Wilson to Brown would become one of the league's most lethal connections if Brown can keep his head on straight.
Seattle is certainly a team to keep an eye on throughout the next week. Brown may get snatched up quickly, or he may have to sit and wait for a team to come calling.
Make sure to stay tuned, as we will have the latest up-to-date information regarding Brown's next move.
