Kyrie Irving is arguably going through his worst nightmare. While the rest of the world is condemning him, however, NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown defended Irving, stating, “It’s already hard enough.” Furthermore, the NBA world seemed unimpressed with Brown’s involvement in Irving’s latest controversy. And it didn’t take long for them to trash the former Super Bowl champion.

But what made Brown come forward in support of Irving? Antonio Brown is a controversial figure in the NFL. Furthermore, Brown has recently been entangled in a number of controversies himself. He accepted the president role at Kanye West’s Donda Sports in February 2022. West received a lot of backlash for his antisemitic comments, and his net worth and reputation plummeted as a result.

Irving is going through a similar thing right now. As a result, Brown has already witnessed what happened to his close friend West. This might explain why he came forward to endorse Irving. And it is clear, that after this controversy things will not be the same for Irving.
