Former NFL receiver and current host of the I Am Athlete show Brandon Marshall is never one to shy away from making headlines.
He has kickstarted a discussion once again by sharing his top 5 predictions for the 2024 NFL offseason, none of which seem too farfetched.
There’s a lot to unpack here, while each prediction seems extremely possible.

Marshall’s first prediction has Mike Evans signing with the Chiefs this offseason.
Wide receiver issues were the most obvious weakness plaguing the Kansas City Chiefs in 2023.
The back-to-back Super Bowl champs endured 44 dropped passes this past season, which led the NFL according to Pro Football Reference.
Evans gave the Tampa Bay Buccanneers a clear outline of his contract desires heading into this past season, and a deal was not struck.
He now heads into free agency following his 10th consecutive 1,000-yard receiving season and a league-leading 13 touchdown receptions.
He has also only dropped 13 passes in the past three seasons and never posted a drop rate above 5.9 percent, which would be a massive improvement for KC.
If you had to choose one of these predictions to be the most likely occurrence, Evans to the Chiefs makes the most sense on paper.
As for the other predictions, there are signs Stefon Diggs has worn out his welcome in Buffalo.
He also didn’t post a game with more than 87 yards after Week 6 last season.
The Giants offense needs a shot in the arm, which Diggs and a re-signed Saquon Barkley would easily provide.
The team is slated to have over $35 million in cap space according to Spotrac, which would help them easily absorb the two stars.
The quarterback carousel is where these predictions get interesting.
Russell Wilson is on the way out in Denver, and early rumors have suggested the Falcons are an ideal landing spot for Kirk Cousins.
However, Marshall sees Wilson as the more likely choice for the Falcons, while Cousins would take over in Denver.
With the Falcons likely moving on from Desmond Ridder this season and a new coach coming in, it would be a surprise to see Raheem Morris hitch his wagon to Wilson instead of making a push for Cousins or a rookie with the 8th overall pick in the NFL Draft.
Marshall made some fun predictions here, and it will be interesting to see if any of them come to fruition.
