Cut/Released: Antonio Brown (suspended 8 games)

[JeremyTB]

You have to be a real piece of garbage human being to be one of(if not) the best WR in the game and go through 3 teams in a matter of a month. And just being given away or cut loose.

AB really tried to hit up Phillip Lindsay to try and get him to tell Elway to sign him but hit up a fan account by accident.

This mans def has CTE.

The Patriots don't even need him to win, that's what made it more annoying they took him in the first place and satisfying that it did blow up on them. It's like they just got him cause they wanted to go 16-0 and beat everyone by 35 points instead of just going 14-2 and beating everyone by 25.

They play the Chiefs b, they wouldn’t beat us by 35 with or without AB.

Player agents must all sell their souls to the devil when they choose that profession. Teams don't want AB, brands are dropping him, but his agent stands by and defends him all the while doing everything he can to get him a new job. It honestly makes me sick. I don't know how you could live with your self defending people like AB.

They're usually attorneys...so I don't think defending some selfish diva with an inflated ego is like the straw that breaks the camel's back here. Even the worst criminals, rapists, serial killers, child molesters..all have attorneys who will pull all sorts of stunts to get their clients out of a jam even if they know the person's guilty.

Watching that hit Burfict laid on him damn near gave me CTE. As bizarre as his behavior has been I wouldn't be surprised at all.

AB is dumb, not evil. One of the key parts of being an agent is representing and defending the player better then they could do so for themselves. Otherwise the players wouldn’t even need agents.

Mike Tomlin for coach of the decade. This guy kept Antonio Brown under wraps for 9 seasons while BB could only stand 11 days with Brown.

Sending intimidating texts with pics of an accusers kids qualifies as evil in my book, he has some serious issues above and beyond being a dummy

 

[Fighter]

About his release etc: LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

About the threating stuff: PIECE OF SHIT

 

[hmc1987]

Only made it through a handful of pages of the Patriots sign Antonio Brown thread but I was entertained

Had 30 million guaranteed from the Raiders and he threw it away

He clearly has some sort of mental illness/CTE related issues and needs professional help

...or...hes just a schmuck?? That's also a possibility

 

[hmc1987]

Only chance now are significant injuries and time. In 4-5 weeks a team might take a stab provided AB stays OUT of the media.

If hes unable to stay out of trouble he has no work. Period

 

[hmc1987]

Not a big loss for them since they didn't need him to begin with.

They were more than willing to look past the terrible allegations to keep him around and even play him in a game so the recent texts to cause another issue must've been too much. Or as the last few days showed, Belichick didn't want to deal with the media doing its job and constantly asking him about it.

All this PLUS its possible he was immature and a clown in the locker room so Bill said "screw it"

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Can't help but think if the Steelers hadn't enabled him so long maybe some of this nonsense could have been prevented. Guy is a complete narcissist

Yeah probably just 3 scores instead

Like Brown is the first star to ever get preferential treatment.

He was apparently always a huge asshole, and was in fact disciplined, but the Steelers kept things under wraps.

There is only so much you can do to contain a toxic volcano when it finally blows.

I wouldn't say it blew up on them. They got rid of him before they did, that's why they did it.

 

[N o o d l e s]

Red Scare crisis level averted. Congrats rest of the league

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Patriots deserve zero credit, they signed this guy knowing the baggage he had.

Everybody sucks in this situation.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I guess we could say that AB rubbed Robert Kraft the wrong way...

They literally did not know about any of the things that got him cut. The raiders did not know either. It was civil settlement discussions with an NDA before everything was made public shortly after him signing in NE


They knew he was an asshole but there are plenty of assholes in the NFL

 

[EpochLink]

Can someone get AB’s phone? Seriously he’s asking for trouble..

Lmao

 

[EpochLink]

And AB deleted that tweet.
