It appears Arizona Cardinals wide receiver John Brown could be heading elsewhere with the start of the NFL’s new year and free agency beginning on March 14.
“Smoke” took to Twitter Wednesday asking his followers where he should end up.
What team you think will be a good fit for me??? I wanna hear

He followed it up later with a more cryptic tweet.

When asked if his time in the Valley was coming to an end, Brown was unsure, but noted he was “in the blind.”
I’m not sure what the outcome is going to be but I’m in the blind right now https://t.co/bK97zcEsRW

He responded to another tweet asking about his post with “asking questions.”
A wave of replies flooded his post with numerous teams. Out of the teams brought up, the Dallas Cowboys were one of the top teams selected, with Brown even going a step further saying he was already trying to get in touch with the Cowboys’ signal caller.

Another team, familiar to the Cardinals, was also thrown out for discussion. When the San Francisco 49ers were brought up, Brown sang high praises to 49er quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.

Other teams named by Brown’s followers/fans included the Kansas Chiefs, Denver Broncos and Cincinnati Bengals with a few honorable mentions to some local teams in the Valley.

Out of all the teams, however, fans weren’t giving up hope on the thought of seeing Brown back in a Cardinals jersey next season.
You’re not going anywhere. Here in AZ is the best fit. https://t.co/POcGSLUtnM

But when he was asked if he was the one giving up on the team, Brown was quick to respond.
