Last Sunday, Marquise “Hollywood” Brown caught two touchdowns for the first time in almost exactly four years.
The last time the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver found the end zone twice before last Sunday was on October 11, 2021, when he was a member of the Baltimore Ravens.
Perhaps, however, he had some help.

“All the glory to God. I got baptized on Friday, so this whole weekend has been amazing for me,” Brown told the media after the game.
Brown posted a video of his baptism on his TikTok account. According to Sports Spectrum, Chiefs team chaplain Marcellus Casey baptized Brown, and Casey’s wife baptized Brown’s fiancée.
“Live for Jesus. Serve others,” Brown captioned the video.
“I was baptized when I was younger, but I feel like last year I had a lot going on mentally. It comes down to ‘don’t worry about the extra stuff’. I found myself questioning a lot of things, and as a believer, that’s not what I should be doing. So it felt good to get baptized with my fiancée,” Brown said.
“Letting God know that I am a follower of Him, all of this is a blessing, that is from Him, and I don’t take it for granted.”

Brown has become a surprise revelation for the Chiefs, finding targets amid Rashee Rice’s suspension and Xavier Worthy’s Week 1 injury that kept him out until Week 4.
However, now that Kansas City is fully healthy, Brown hopes to remain in Patrick Mahomes’ circle of trust.
Brown wasn’t the only football player to be baptized over the weekend. Jacksonville Jaguars two-way star Travis Hunter was baptized just hours before their game against the Seattle Seahawks.
“It’s Sunday. It’s God’s day. I’ve been planning to get baptized for a minute. I changed my life to become a better man. It means a lot. I’m becoming a better man, leaving my old self and starting a new chapter,” Hunter said, via ESPN.

Terrion Arnold of the Detroit Lions was also baptized earlier this month.
