It’s true. When asked about which signal-caller he wants to catch passes from next, Brown’s response was heard—including by the QB himself, who responded with a s–t-eating-grin emoji.
Jackson is seemingly on board with the possibility of throwing touchdowns to Brown. (Then again, many a QB have said similar things prior to Brown’s act wearing thin.) It’s not the first time, either; the QB gave a ringing public endorsement of the WR in the 2020 offseason, saying he’d be “happy” if the team signed him.
