Antonio Brown is having a time of his life ever making a bizarre exit from the MetLife Stadium. His life has turned into a fairy tale. He has since appeared on numerous shows with many celebrities and the list keeps going on. Recently, the former Buccaneers receiver appeared on Logan Paul’s podcast, entitled ‘IMPAULSIVE’, for a casual chit-chat.

In the 311th installment, the show featured Antonio Brown talking about numerous subjects, one of them being his opinions on his former coach Bruce Arians. During the show, co-host Mike Majlak asked AB about his thoughts on Bruce Arians smacking the helmet of safety Andrew Adams, during the Wild Card matchup against the Eagles.

“I mean, it just shows you a coach losing his cool on the sideline. Imagine the coach is telling you to ‘get the eff out of here you’re done,'” Brown said. “And then the next guy just slapping the guy, not on the sideline on the field slapping the guy. So, you be the judge.”

Ever since his release from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brown has been called out to the franchise and head coach Arians, multiple times.

Talking about the helmet smacking incident, the coach was handed a $50,000 fine for making contact with a player on the field. However, Arians wasn’t apologetic for it. He revealed he tried to stop his player from conceding a penalty after getting into a great field position.

“I’ll appeal it. It ain’t got nothing to do with the game, so we’re good… I’ve seen enough dumb,” Arians said, via the Tampa Bay Times. “You can’t pull guys out of out of pile. We just got a big play, great field position and he’s trying to pull a guy out of the pile and I was trying to knock him off that guy so he didn’t get a penalty.”
