Brandon Browner

I'm guessing he can't travel with the team but does anyone know if he went to the Super Bowl on his own dime?

More importantly do you think he's probably kicking himself now that he can't even be in the parade?

I'm certain I saw him both at the Super Bowl and in the locker room. He was also at the NFCGG in the locker room (at least). Not sure who's footing the bill, but the team is definitely still giving him access.

I figured he was there but I didn't hear anything about it. I'm sure he's still kicking himself for what he did but I'm glad he got to be there.

He was not there.

The NFL suspended Browner indefinitely in early December for violating its substance-abuse policy, meaning he’ll need to sit out a full year before being allowed to apply for reinstatement. So while he was a key contributor for much of the season, Browner must sit at home and watch his teammates take the MetLife Stadium field without him.

The article isn't clear about him not bein there as a spectator

Remember under substance abuse policy you have full access to the team and facilities (this was changed awhile ago). During PED suspensions (not what he is suspended for) you have to stay away.

He was there as a spectator, saw him post game on the field with Sherms mom.

We were fortunate to have guys that were able to step in, filling the void left by Brandon Browner. This is a day of celebration, so I'll leave it at that.

He should have been able to participate today. He did more than Jesse Williams did.

I felt bad for him becuase he is not on the active roster but I would put money on it he gets a ring. Browner had alot to do with building the idenity of the L.O.B. and the defense in general.
But Browner getting Busted was a blessing in disguise in my opinion. Byron Maxwell played better coverage and was just as physical.
