Antonio Brown is somewhat known for his fallout with different teams in his career. The prolific wide receiver was once one of the best players in the world. Due to it, he was also the highest-paid WR in the league at one point. Despite his outbursts on the field, he lives quite a ravishing life off the field.

A few years ago, when Antonio Brown was still with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the WR hired a person who was once a drug addict. That person had lost all hope in his life, but like Brown, he bounced back and made his life meaningful.

That person’s name was Nicholas Hasapoglou. He is well known by the name of Chef Niko. During the time when he worked as a chef for Brown, Niko played a huge role in the WR’s house. He was responsible for all the required nutrition that Brown needed in his diet to be at the top of his game.

According to a source, Niko worked around 12 hours a day for Antonio Brown. Not so long ago, Niko was living in Long Island, New York. He was just 15 years old when he started doing drugs. He consumed all types of drugs during that time. Talking about it, Niko said, “I thought it was cool to get stoned every day and to get drunk and to do harder drugs.”

However, Niko made his life meaningful later. He is now a very popular chef, and working for a star like Brown is no easy task. Talking about how he bounced back in life, Niko said, “I want people to know that they have to persevere because everything is possible.”

Niko’s stay as the private chef of Antonio Brown was not that long. He was hired in 2016 and was fired by Brown in the same year. According to TMZ, the breakup between Brown and Niko was rather ugly. Brown had also stuck a fork in his private chef.

After the separation, Niko said, “I thought he was my friend, and that’s not the case, I guess.” Both of them were close to each other when Niko worked there. Due to it, the fallout between them was rather surprising.
