Raiders Hosting LB Brandon Marshall, Cardinals Have Shown “Real Interest”

According to Mike Klis, the Raiders will host LB Brandon Marshall for a visit on Thursday.  

Klis adds that the Cardinals have also shown “real interest” in Marshall.

Marshall was released by the Broncos earlier this offseason. The Raiders were one of the previous teams reported to be interested.  

Marshall, 29, is a former fifth-round pick of the Jaguars back in 2012. However, he lasted just over a year in Jacksonville before he was waived at the start of the 2013 season and later signed to the Broncos practice squad.

Denver brought Marshall back for the 2016 season on a one-year, restricted tender worth $2.553 million before eventually agreeing to a five-year, $34.553 million contract that includes $20 million guaranteed.

Marshall was set to make a base salary of $6.5 million for the 2019 season when the Broncos declined his option. 

In 2018, Marshall appeared in 11 games for the Broncos and recorded 42 tackles and no sacks or interceptions.
