New Orleans Saints WR Barion Brown has impressed in one-on-one drills, and head coach Kellen Moore believes Brown can be more than just a kick returner. ‘We watched a lot of evidence of him playing receiver and playing impactful plays in the SEC for a number of years, not just the LSU year, but the Kentucky years,’ Moore said. ‘And when you watch all that exposure and get to know Barion, you’re really fired up to have this guy.’
