The Facts: Brown recently worked out with Washington quarterback Dwayne Haskins. Which caused one of the reporters participating in Wednesday’s videoconference with Washington coach Ron Rivera to ask whether the team could add Brown to the roster. “For us to bring a veteran guy in a couple of positions, we have to see what we have in terms of our young guys first,” Rivera replied. “I made the comment about our left tackle position. We have a group of young guys that we have to find out whether or not they have the ability to be football players. If you bring in a veteran right now, you are going to stunt the growth of someone young."
Diehards Line:Rivera continued: “I know who Antonio Brown is. I know he is a great player and an impact guy. He is also a veteran guy and we have some guys that we have to find out about. That is the approach. We want to see what we have. ...” So it’s not a yes or a no but a maybe, based on what happens with the young players. But the other practical reality is that Brown remains subject to discipline for three different investigations under the Personal Conduct Policy, which ultimately could make Brown unavailable for part or maybe even all of the 2020 season.
