The Kansas City Chiefs are adding Marquise “Hollywood” Brown in their bid to upgrade their wide receiver corps, multiple reports indicated late Thursday night.
The one-year contract is worth up to $11 million.
The speedy Brown, a five-year NFL veteran who spent the last two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, had his best season in 2021, his third year with the Baltimore Ravens. As quarterback Lamar Jackson’s top target, he had 91 catches for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns.
The Ravens traded him to Arizona in 2022. He caught 67 passes for 709 yards and three touchdowns that season.
Last season, he slipped to 51 receptions for a career-low 574 yards and four scores.
While the Chiefs are coming off back-to-back Super Bowl victories, the team has appeared to lack a deep threat receiver for quarterback Patrick Mahomes since Tyreek Hill was traded to the Miami Dolphins after the 2021 season.
In 72 games, with 65 starts, Brown has 313 catches for 3,644 yards and 28 touchdowns.
