Here's something that I don't see being discussed.
Before Brown can be signed by ANY team, the league will have to finish their investigation into the accuser's allegations. The league has heard from the accuser, but before that investigation can be finished it has to hear from Brown. But here's the thing. Brown, to this point, has REFUSED to present his side to the league. He has steadfastly refused to set a date to meet with them, and not for want of trying. Thus the league can't finish their investigation and Brown can't be signed.
So why hasn't he cooperated if he really wants to play My guess is that he really doesn't. The union has pretty much told him that he's going to get paid for NOT playing, so why work up a sweat when you can PRETEND to be the victim in all of this. It is just speculation on my part, but can you come up with anything better. Why won't the guy even make the attempt at defending himself?
