When Archer tried to talk about Kaepernick and Brown’s free agency, the wide receiver dismissed any kind of comparisons between him and the quarterback who hasn’t played since 2016.

"Colin Kaepernick not AB. Colin Kaepernick not even from the hood. He’s not even from Liberty City. So, I don’t even want to mention his name," the free-agent wide receiver said. "AB is a valuable football player. AB had stats last year, touchdowns."

Brown grew up in Liberty City, a neighborhood of Miami. In 2019, Brown talked about the gang violence that was around him but was determined to not be defined by the negative environment and said he was lucky enough to have a support system around him to lead him down the path of football.

Archer started to talk about how Kaepernick has been "treated" and Brown interrupted, saying the free-agent quarterback has generally been treated well since leaving the 49ers, specifically mentioning the documentary he made with Netflix that aired last year on the streaming platform.
