The NFL loves highlighting its most exciting players via their social media, and the next darling of the league will be Marquise Brown a.k.a. Hollywood.

There’s nothing the NFL loves more than players who draw a crowd. From players like DeSean Jackson to Tyreek Hill, there’s simply something about these lightning-fast athletes that brings in so much national attention. The league couldn’t have found themselves a better addition to this group than the Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown.

Brown’s athleticism makes him so dangerous that Baltimore would be crazy to pigeonhole him as just a wide receiver. With the speed and agility he possesses, getting Brown the ball on sweeps, running plays, and even special teams could reap massive benefits. The Ravens also may run an unorthodox-looking offense, giving Brown just one more reason to dominate.

Of course, Marquise Brown’s biggest plays will likely come from his natural wide receiver spot. Big 12 defenses were constantly put on notice when Brown took the field. His career 18.3 YPR and 17 touchdowns in two seasons are more than enough evidence of that. When the ball is in Brown’s hands, anything and everything can happen.

If for no other reason, Brown already has the nickname “Hollywood” and his quarterback, lamar Jackson, also has an awesome nickname: “Action Jackson.” You can’t tell me that “Lights… Camera… Action to Hollywood!” doesn’t sound like an awesome tag-line for the Ravens duo of Brown and Jackson. After all, the two are both remarkable athletes who make jaws drop when they make a play.

Of the two, I believe it’ll be Marquise Brown who shines the brightest. There’s little doubt that even with Jackson progressing as a passer that he won’t use his legs to stun fans. Even still, Brown will outshine his teammate because of all the opportunities he will see as a rookie.

Get ready for the fireworks show in 2019, everyone. Marquise Brown is going to take this league by storm. Don’t be surprised to see him make regular appearances on highlight reels and the NFL’s social media accounts. It’ll be hard not to watch him make those incredible plays on repeat.
