After the Green Bay Packers cut former Alabama CB Tony Brown over the weekend, he was a hot commodity.
As he made his way through the waiver process, 4 different NFL teams attempted to claim him.
However, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Brown will be heading to the Cincinnati Bengals:
The #Bengals were awarded former #Packers CB Tony Brown, but he was popular. Source said the #Colts, #Browns, and #Raiders all attempted to claim him.

The Indianapolis Colts, Cleveland Browns and Oakland Raiders all tried to claim him, too, but since the Bengals are the worst team in the league, they got priority.
Will he stick around with the Bengals? Or, will he have a new NFL home by this time next year? We’ll find out over the next few months.
