ESPN 710 Seattle thinks Seahawks RCB Brandon Browner could be next up for a contract extension.
Beat writer Danny O'Neil doesn't believe the Seahawks will shell out anymore long-term contracts this year, but Browner fits the profile. He is entering just his third NFL season as a 27-year-old, and he's scheduled to be a restricted free agent next March. Browner graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 22 cornerback last season. Browner, LCB Richard Sherman, and FS Earl Thomas are all scheduled to become unrestricted free agents after the 2014 season. May 4 - 3:49 PM

Seahawks activated RCB Brandon Browner from the reserve/suspended list.

Browner was eligible to return to the team on Monday, and he did just that. The Seahawks now have the other half of their dynamic cornerback duo back just in time for the playoffs. Seattle placed CB Walter Thurmond III (hamstring) on injured reserve to make room on the roster.

Seahawks CB Brandon Browner has dropped his appeal of his four-game suspension for violating the league's PED policy, and will miss the final four games of the regular season.

It's a huge blow for the Wild Card contending Seahawks, but likely a calculated one, as fellow starting CB Richard Sherman still has an appeal scheduled for December 14. Browner's decision means the Seahawks may "only" be without their top two corners for the final three games of the regular season, and makes Browner eligible for a potential playoff game. According to Seahawks.com, Walter Thurmond III is expected to start in Browner's absence, leaving Marcus Trufant in the slot.

Profootballtalk.com reports that Seahawks CBs Brandon Browner and Richard Sherman are both expected to be available for Week 14 versus Arizona.

It's a bad break for Larry Fitzgerald, not that the Cardinals quarterback could get the ball to his top receiver if Browner and Sherman were out, anyway. Sherman and Browner are facing four-game suspensions for using Adderall, and their appeals hearings have not yet been scheduled. By refusing to accept the suspensions, Browner and Sherman risk missing playoff games, if 7-5 Seattle qualifies. At the same time, Browner and Sherman could avoid the four-game bans altogether if they win the appeal.

Seahawks RCB Brandon Browner leads the NFL in pass interference penalties this season.

Browner, a Pro Bowl alternate, has been flagged six times for pass interference, three times for illegal contact, and four times for defensive holding. While Browner's stiff-hipped game has resulted in a high number of penalties, the Seahawks primarily use press coverage on defense, which benefits his physical style of play. A former CFL standout, Browner is tied for fourth in the NFL with six interceptions.

Seahawks RCB Brandon Browner was picked on by Ben Roethlisberger in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

The 6'4 Browner couldn't get a jam on the Steelers' speedy wideouts and paid the price. He gave up a touchdown to Mike Wallace, a 39-yard pass interference call and a 53-yard catch to Wallace. "He needs to grow from this," coach Pete Carroll said. The Seahawks are going to want to hide him for their Week 3 matchup with Larry Fitzgerald and the Cardinals.

The Seahawks are expected to start CB Brandon Browner opposite Marcus Trufant in their opener against San Francisco.

Yikes. Browner is 6-foot-4, 27 years old, and spent four seasons in the CFL after going undrafted out of Oregon State. Now it appears he's ahead of Walter Thurmond III after Kelly Jennings was traded away. While reports out of Seahawks camp were glowing on Browner, the 49ers figure to test him often on Sunday. A better passing team would surely attack him relentlessly.
