Who Should I Start? Christian Kirk or Marquise Brown

Tuesday, April 16, 4:30 PM

Veteran wide receiver Rashard Higgins and linebacker Christian Kirksey are signing one-day contracts with the Cleveland Browns to retire with the organization, the team announced on Tuesday. Higgins was selected by Cleveland in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft and racked up 137 receptions for 1,890 yards and 12 touchdowns in 82 games from 2016 to 2021. He spent the 2022 season with the Carolina Panthers but did not log a snap. Kirkey was a 2014 third-round pick by the Browns and played for the team until 2019 before brief stints with the Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans, and Buffalo Bills. Overall, he secured 779 tackles, 16.5 sacks, seven interceptions, and 34 passes defended in 114 career games.

Free agent wide receiver Marquise Brown signed a one-year, $11 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday. Brown will pair with superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes and provide the Chiefs a big play wideout the team has been lacking since Tyreek Hill. Brown will be Kansas City's third option in the passing game behind Travis Kelce and Rashee Rice. He provides Mahomes with a reliable, speedy target and should bounce back in 2024 after managing 51 catches for 574 yards and four touchdowns with the Cardinals last season. It will be tough for Hollywood to replicate his final season with Baltimore, where he hauled in 91 passes for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns. Brown should see a fantasy boost with his new team and is borderline WR3 heading into early 2024 drafts.
