The Arizona Cardinals acquired extensive collector Marquise “Hollywood” Brown in a deal with the Baltimore Ravens during the 2022 NFL Draft, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Baltimore send Brown and 100th overall pick to Arizona in a move to get a first-round choice of Cardinals in 23rd place overall.
Brown, 24, was a first-round pick in 2019 and finished the 2021 season with 1,008 yards of possession and six touchdowns. During his three seasons at Baltimore, Brown made 21 touchdown passes. In February, Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta told reporters he takes Brown very seriously and plans to pick the fifth-year option on the recipient’s rookie contract for $12.9 million.
That choice would instead go to the Cardinals, who needed a receiver opposite DeAndre Hopkins. Earlier in the season, Christian Kirk left the company for free leaving soon-to-be 34-year-old AJ Green as the team’s second-best pick.
Brown played college football with Kyler Murray at Oklahoma, where the two combined for 1,318 yards and 10 touchdowns during the 2018 season.
