Bills sign former Ravens quarterback to mimic Lamar Jackson ahead of divisional round matchup
‘The Bills have signed Anthony Brown, a three-year veteran quarterback who broke into the NFL with the Ravens back in 2022.

Like Jackson, Brown is capable of extending and making plays with his mobility, which is the main reason why Bills head coach Sean McDermott signed him.’

Derrick Henry also had 199 yards and a touchdown.’

How can the Buffalo Bills defend the Baltimore Ravens high-powered offense?
‘”They present a lot of different challenges obviously with their passing game with Lamar (Jackson) and the combination of Lamar and Derrick (Henry),” Bills head coach Lamar Jackson said. “We have a tremendous amount of respect for both of those players. They’re hard to stop. It was a good acquisition on their part. Just that two-dimensional type of weaponry is tough on people.”‘

‘”The struggles really started in college,” explained Johnson, who broke records at the University of Maryland. “All of this on your plate as a collegiate athlete.”‘
