Marshawn Lynch isn’t the only former NFL superstar getting an unlikely late-season look.
Antonio Brown, whose topsy-turvy 2019 began in Napa at Raiders training camp, on Friday worked out for the New Orleans Saints. The free-agent wide receiver posted a picture of a tryout waiver with the message “back to business” on his Instagram account, though the image was removed after several hours.
Unlike Lynch, the former Raider who came out of retirement this week to help fill the Seattle Seahawks’ need for healthy running backs against the 49ers for this weekend’s NFC West showdown and into the playoffs, Brown’s playing status is as clear as mud.
