Regardless, Brown has been his own sideshow for 19 months now. Twitter definitely basked in the news of his statement– particularly in Pittsburgh, Oakland and New England.

Mr. Big Chest made some big news on Monday: hes through with the NFL.

Approved, aside from sharing photos of his current bithday event, the 32 year-old has actually been extremely quiet on Twitter of late. Shockingly so.

Antonio Brown is making it sound like hes done playing football.

Former Steelers pass receiver Antonio Brown sent out a series of tweets intimating that he is leaving the video game of football.

While numerous people have utilized Twitter as a method to spout off about anything from race relations, to the governmental election, to coronavirus, to “Tiger King,” Brown has been strikingly silent over the last couple of months based on his previous social networks behavior.

That said, the Seattle Seahawks and Baltimore Ravens have both apparently suggested some level of interest in Brown in current months.

Now ESPNs Jeremy Fowler says there might be a connection in between Browns retirement hazards and the case brought versus him by among those females, Britney Taylor.

Thats the A.B. way. One day hes Antonio. The next hes “Ronald.” Recently, hes been “Himothy.” On Thursday, he might be “Mr. Big Chest” once more.

Of all, its Antonio Brown. This behavior from Brown is not distinct. The NFL has yet to formally discipline Brown for his habits. No one has actually been willing to take on Browns wild skills due to the fact that they have no idea how many games hell be permitted to play in his very first season under a new agreement.

In other words, I believe this is “Ronalds” way of stating, “You cant keep me out. I retire.

at this point the danger is greater than the benefit thank you everyone who become part of this journey i best regards thank you for everything! life goes on 84!

The NFL has yet to formally discipline Brown for his behavior. As a result, must he sign with a group, a suspension is likely before he is permitted on the field. For that reason, nobody has wanted to handle Browns wild talents because they have no concept how many video games hell be permitted to play in his first season under a new contract.

Is it time to leave i done ✅ whatever in the game?!!

This strikes me as Browns version of, “Im fired? What?! No way! I give up!”.

That pattern reversed Monday, though, based on his tweet storm.

Actually, A.B., you didnt “conquer.” You didnt do “whatever” in this game. And you didnt finish the objective because you didnt win a Super Bowl.

You can expect a comparable reaction when Brown announces a “comeback.” I anticipate that to take place sometime in between now and completion of August.

This behavior from Brown is not unique. When he was fighting with the Oakland Raiders over his helmet, he formerly considered offering up the game. And he threatened to retire a week after the Patriots released him the wake of those threatening text messages he sent out to a female– one of 2 supposed victims who have actually had accused him of sexual misbehavior.

A source said Antonio Brown recently got near settling his case with Britney Taylor and scheduled a mediation but then revoked it. Thats the 2nd time hes gotten near settling, then openly meant retirement quickly afterwards.

Brown later added, “life goes on 84! I came i saw i conquered mission complete Call God.”.

Specifically with the NFLs return-to-play talk heating up, tasks potentially offered if gamers decide out, and a season that might get truncated without Brown needing to pay the full cost of his suspension anyhow, this feels like an odd time for the previous Pro Bowler to lastly give up the fight.

The former Steelers All-Pro meant retirement on Twitter Monday. For Tuesdays “First Call,” we evaluate where Brown might be going with this approach and a few of the online reaction to his “announcement.”.

We have to take this “news” with a massive grain of salt. Firstly, its Antonio Brown. He can say one thing on Twitter Monday, then state exactly the opposite on Tuesday.

Typically, none of these men are on the very same page.
