Antonio Brown knows which NFL team he wants to play for next season. While appearing on the I Am Athlete podcast, Brown, who was released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier this month, said he would love to play for the Baltimore Ravens. Brown was asked which quarterback was “next in line” in his career.

“Lamar Jackson,” Brown said on the podcast hosted by former NFL wide receiver Brandon Marshall, who asked if that’s the QB he wants to play for. “Jackson action,” Brown said. Let’s give Lamar Jackson his flowers… Shout out to Lamar Jackson. That’s it. Lamar Jackson is a great quarterback. Not just him throwing the ball, the dynamics of his game, the emotion.”

Jackson saw the video of Brown talking about joining the Ravens and took to Twitter to retweet it on his page while posting a smiley face emoji with horns. This isn’t the first time Brown has talked about playing for the Ravens. As The Baltimore Sun mentioned, Brown trained with Jackson and his cousin Marquise Brown, who plays for Baltimore. Video of the workout surfaced in April 2020, and at the time, Jackson was asked about the possibility of the team signing Antonio Brown.

“I’d be happy if they signed him,” Jackson said of Brown, who was between teams after being eliminated by the New England Patriots in September 2019. “He’s a great player. He showed it every year when he played.” He was with the Steelers in the past, but it’s not my decision.” Brown signed with the Buccaneers later that year and helped the team win a Super Bowl. He re-signed with the team before the 2021 season and finished his season with 42 receptions, 545 yards, and four touchdowns in seven games. He was released by the Bucs before the regular season ended after he left the field during the team’s game against the New York Jets.

The Ravens finished the 2021 season with an 8–9 record, their first losing season since 2015. They also missed the playoffs for the first time since 2017, but the team was without Jackson for five games due to injury. The Ravens had two record 1,000-yard receivers. Marquise Brown caught 91 passes for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns, and tight end Mark Andrews caught 107 passes for 1,361 yards and nine touchdowns.
