Antonio Brown is planning to make his debut today for an arena football league, but if his agent is to be believed, it won’t be long until the wideout is taking the field for an NFL squad. Agent JR Rickert told Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports that Brown is generating interest around the league.
“He is exploring the right fit,” his agent said earlier this week. Rickert also described the interest as “genuine.”
I’ve met Antonio, he’s a solid dude. Beats to his own drum. Down to Earth.
That Burfuct hit definitely shook him …he needs to get off social media and stop talking sh*t and focus on therapy and getting back to be the super star he once was
The Burfict hit isn’t why one of the top high school players in Miami, Florida takes a winding road that lands him at Central Michigan. And he was lucky to get that opportunity. Antonio has an “extreme” personality. He operates on a different wavelength than the rest of us. The upside is something a teammate once said about him, “Antonio comes out to every practice like its the Super Bowl.” As Lions fans might remember, Antonio shredded Darius Slay in joint practices. But he didn’t “get motivated” for that joint practice. That was who Antonio Brown is every day. And if there isn’t football or a joint practice to channel his energy into, it gets channeled somewhere else. And that isn’t always a healthy place.
Going back to the football aspect of Antonio’s personality, and the comment his teammate made. Everything you say to him needs to be approached with the same seriousness as if you are saying it to him on Super Bowl Sunday.
Put full blame on the smaaat-ice guy in the room. Selling the “Albany Empire” to a known mental case with a shitload of financial woe. What could possibly go wrong?
