Brown later signed a three-year, $27 million contract with the Bills in 2019. Buffalo cut him following the 2020 season, and Brown agreed to a one-year $3.75 million contract with the Raiders.

However, Brown asked for and was granted his release by the Raiders coming out of the preseason. He later caught on with the Broncos practice squad and was elevated to their active before being let go. Brown later caught on with the Jaguars’ practice squad.

In 2021, Brown has appeared in four games for the Broncos and Jaguars, and was targeted three times but had no receptions.
