Even with the 2025 NFL draft over, there\u2019s still a chance that the Kansas City Chiefs could trade former first-round pick Marquise Brown.<\/p>\n

According to Pro Football Network, the source believes the former back-to-back Super Bowl Champions may send Brown to a new team if\u00a02025 draft pick Jalen Royals\u00a0impresses, especially during the preseason.<\/p>\n

It looks like it may be impossible for the Chiefs to trade away Brown after just re-signing him to a one-year deal, but there\u2019s still a solid chance that the team could open to sending him to a new roster.<\/p>\n

Originally selected in the 2019 NFL Draft, the former Oklahoma product became a dependable option for the Ravens, but the team sent him during the 2022 NFL Draft to the Arizona Cardinals, where he only spent two seasons with them.<\/p>\n

Brown is a journeyman, which is another reason why it shouldn\u2019t surprise anyone if he winds up on a new roster.<\/p>\n

The wide receiver was hoping to carve out a role and help Patrick Mahomes in the aerial attack last year, but it didn\u2019t turn out like he hoped. After the Xavier Worthy offseason drama, the Chiefs\u00a0were quick to re-sign Brown to a new deal\u00a0in case they were going to be without the second-year receiver for the season.<\/p>\n

However, it looks like it\u2019s all positive signs for Worthy.<\/p>\n

Even though Rashee Rice and Worthy will take up most of the slot snaps, the emergence of Royals could come at the wrong time for Brown. He has the same body type and elusiveness as Rice and Worthy, so it\u2019ll be interesting to see how the wide receiver competition plays out.<\/p>\n

If they don\u2019t need Brown anymore, then these three teams could pursue a potential trade conversation.<\/p>\n

REPORT: Chiefs \u201cLikely\u201d To Trade Former First Rounder Marquise Brown Before 2025 Season<\/h2>\n

3 Logical Fits<\/h3>\n

Dallas Cowboys<\/h4>\n

The Dallas Cowboys might not be done yet in adding another wide receiver\u00a0despite trading for George Pickens.<\/p>\n

The team still could use the depth even though they have two dynamic playmakers, including\u00a0CeeDee Lamb.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Dak Prescott needs all the weapons he can get to not only succeed in the regular season but the playoffs, which the Cowboys have struggled in for so many years. Marquise Brown has more experience than their third man receiver, Jalen Tolbert, who has a lot of upside, but can\u2019t carry on the momentum in certain moments.<\/p>\n

Brown has that \u201cit\u201d factor to turn the receiver unit from good to great.<\/p>\n

Carolina Panthers<\/h4>\n

Meanwhile, the Panthers shouldn\u2019t feel afraid to be aggressive before the 2025 regular season.<\/p>\n

They just had two worst back-to-back years with an incapable pass attack and a quarterback who didn\u2019t have much help in the offense.<\/p>\n

However,\u00a0Bryce Young\u00a0has no choice but to excel with the emergence of Tetairoa McMillian and unproven wideouts in Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker. Adam Thielen\u00a0is entering the final year of his NFL career, and Brown could build the bridge of transition to cover the slot behind Legette and Coker.<\/p>\n

Chicago Bears<\/h4>\n

If the rumors are true, DJ Moore could be in a uniform for the 2025 campaign. After drafting wide receiver Luther Burden, the Bears are rebuilding a new receiver unit for quarterback Caleb Williams. If they lose Moore, Marquise Brown is the perfect replacement who could take on duties to make an impact while the Bears continue to develop talent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
