Antonio Brown is not an active WR in the NFL. However, he has kept the option partially open under some conditions. Recently, the ex-Bucs WR called out Jerry Jones to call him up to fill their stability in the offensive section. While many contemplated the situation to take place someday, a three-time Lombardi Champ puts a stamp of denial.

Six-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Nate Newton joined Colin Cowherd in ‘The Herd’ from the Chargers-Cowboys’ joint training. The host queried if they would consider rolling the dice over free agent Antonio Brown. Cowherd further mentions that AB can be an incisive character. However, if CeeDee Lamb gets hurt, it could severely weaken the Cowboys’ receiving core.

Nate Newton responded, “No. I wouldn’t. What they need now is stability, and if you’re going to go out and get a veteran guy. Other veterans out there. I love Antonio Brown. I have personal relations with him through Deion Sanders, but I’ve seen some of the things he’s done, and when we need him the most he cannot. He’s been known to let you down, so Antonio, I love you. No sir, not with the Dallas Cowboys.”

Antonio Brown has had a marvelous time in the NFL. He has put up spectacular numbers that reinforce his career to become Hall of Fame worthy. But his off-field antics, like Newton mentioned earlier, are something one cannot overlook.

Jerry Jones reacts to Antonio Brown and his interest in Cowboys

Shortly after Antonio Brown showcased his interest in joining the Dallas Cowboys, franchise owner Jerry Jones responded to the veteran receiver’s desire to work with the Dallas offense. Jones directly torched AB.

This week, TMZ asked Jones if he would bring in Brown. The Cowboys owner replied, “We’re good,” and stated, “We want to give these young guys a real chance to make this team.” 

Despite the disturbance in the force, it does not incline Jones to bring a veteran WR like Antonio aboard. The chances for AB to make a resurgence go back to NIL, and one has to wait to see him back in any capacity.
