The Baltimore Ravens made a big draft-day trade when they moved wide receiver Marquise Brown to the Arizona Cardinals along with pick No. 100 in exchange for the No. 25 overall selection in the 2022 draft. Brown was Baltimore’s No. 1 receiver, and there were no indications that a trade of the former Oklahoma star was happening, making the move a shock to many people.
Brown has been in Arizona for a few months now, and on early Wednesday morning was arrested for criminal speeding. Ari Meirov detailed what is defined as criminal speeding in Arizona, which can mean multiple different things.
