A 2011 NFL player lockout would propel Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall back to Denver, Marshall told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The catch? Marshall wouldn’t be a Bronco; he’d be playing basketball, and trying out for the NBA’s Denver Nuggets.
“My first team will be the Nuggets and my second team will be the Heat — I’m serious,” Marshall said.
“There’s not going to be any football. If there’s a lockout, I have to find a job. I figure the Nuggets will be a better choice because of the welcome home cheer I’ll get — a couple of boos at first. I’m gonna get with a basketball coach and get to work, prepare for the lockout.”
Marshall played high school basketball, so it’d be an uphill battle, but we wouldn’t put it past the 6’4″ Pro Bowler.
But… Denver? Doesn’t he hate this ****ing town?
