Loved you on my @Browns brotha @God_Son80 🤝. I know you a southern fellow. Why not come south to the @Saints 👀 I’ll be at some games this year 🤷🏽♂️

Filing this under things we love to see: it hasn’t taken New Orleans Pelicans superstar CJ McCollum long to take to his new city, and the lifelong Cleveland Browns fan is already throwing his weight around on Twitter to try and help his next-door neighbors. It’s no secret that the New Orleans Saints need help at wide receiver, which led McCollum to dive into the news of the day that his Browns are releasing five-time Pro Bowler Jarvis Landry.
And McCollum’s advice to Landry: come join him in New Orleans, which happens to be Landry’s own hometown. It’s a sentiment we share with McCollum here at Saints Wire, and the vision of Marquez Callaway and recently-tendered Deonte Harty clearing out defenses while Michael Thomas and Landry take advantage of the free real estate underneath coverage is awful enticing.
Let’s be real, Landry isn’t going to sign with the Saints because McCollum recommended it. But it sure would be fun to see both star players making highlight reel-worthy plays in the Caesars Superdome and Smoothie King Center, shoulder to shoulder. Let’s see if anything develops here.
