REPORT: Raiders ‘intrigued’ by Steelers WR Antonio Brown

The biggest offseason storyline of the 2019 season so far is where will disgruntled star Antonio Brown land? Brown has requested a trade from the Steelers, and it appears the team will grant their wish. But what teams will be interested?

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Raiders are among a few teams who are reportedly “intrigued” by trading for the four-time All-Pro receiver. Among the other teams interested in Brown are the Broncos and the Cardinals, according to Rapoport.

One takeaway from Combine week in Indy: The #Steelers have enough interest in WR Antonio Brown to be able to trade him before March 17, sources say. The #Raiders, #Broncos, and #AZCardinals are among the teams who have appeared the most intrigued.

With the Raiders having four picks inside of the top-35 selections, they make sense as a potential destination for Brown. That is even truer when you consider the need the Raiders have on the roster for a dynamic receiver. If the Raiders do complete a trade for Brown, expect it to be done in the next week or so, ahead of free agency.
