Birthday boy Browner gets opportunity with Saints

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — Happy birthday, Brandon Browner.

You’re turning 31 on Sunday, making you one of the older cornerbacks in the NFL, and you are the oldest player in the Saints’ secondary

That’s interesting.

At 6-foot-4, 221 pounds, you’re one of the largest cornerbacks in the league, and you’re the tallest and heaviest of the 15 defensive backs on the Saints training camp roster.

That’s impressive.

You’ve got back-to-back Super Bowl rings, with Seattle in 2013 and New England in 2014. That’s nice.

But you’ve also had back-to-back drug suspensions in 2012, 2013 and 2014, which cost you 12 regular-season games plus the Seahawks’ championship run.
