League sources told ESPN that the Raiders, Washington Redskins and Tennessee Titans have shown the "most interest" in the All-Pro.

The superstar pass-catcher expressed interest in joining the San Francisco 49ers last season, but 49ers general manager John Lynch said Thursday that the team has not had contact with Pittsburgh regarding Brown.

Brown is due a $2.5 million roster bonus on March 17. The seven-time Pro Bowl selection led the NFL with 15 touchdowns in 2018. He also had 1,297 yards on 104 receptions. Brown, 30, has six consecutive seasons with at least 1,200 yards and 101 receptions.
