Brandon Marshall’s past has haunted him, but the Saints offer a new chance at redemption

Brandon Marshall has a chance to go to the postseason for the first time in his 13-year career. The wide receiver spot recently vacated by fellow midseason addition Dez Bryant was filled Tuesday by the former Bronco, Dolphin, Bear, Jet, Giant, and Seahawk.

The six-time Pro Bowler has eclipsed 100 catches in a season six times. He’s played in 178 games, gained 12,351 yards on 970 catches, scored 83 touchdowns, and averaged 12.7 yards per catch since entering the league in 2006.

With potentially Hall of Fame numbers like that, it would usually seem unlikely that a player of Marshall’s caliber would be available, especially after having been cut midseason by another NFC team.
