Antonio Brown will make appearance at U.S. Bank Stadium in 2019

The Antonio Brown saga ended early Sunday morning.

Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the former Steeler is heading to the Raiders in exchange for a third and a fifth-round pick.

The NFC nodded its head to the trade. There were rumblings that Brown could end up with the Packers or Eagles. It never sounded like it was close for either team, but you never know with these things.

But the Vikings will still have to go up against Brown and the Raiders at U.S. Bank Stadium. While the schedule hasn’t been released yet, we know that the Raiders are one of eight home opponents for the Vikings in 2019.

Brown has played two-career games against the Vikings, combining for 17 catches and 150 yards and zero touchdowns.

He’s never played at U.S. Bank Stadium. The Vikings “hosted” the Steelers back in 2013, but that was at Wembley Stadium.

If I’m buying tickets for a game next season, this one is near the top of the list.

Brown vs. Xavier Rhodes could be a lot of fun.
