Antonio Brown and Tom Brady won a Super Bowl together in 2020. They were on good terms when they were playing together. But things have turned sour between the two.
Ever since Brown walked out on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in January 2022, he has been targeting Brady one way or the other. But did Brady see a changed AB before the world did?

Antonio Brown shares message from Tom Brady
Antonio Brown shared a screenshot of a message sent to him by his former teammate and NFL legend Tom Brady. In the message, Brady calls out AB for his “behavior,” and says that the former Buccaneers WR has turned selfish.“When I met you, you were humble, willing to learn, and anxious to improve things in your life. In a short period of time, you have done those things and accomplished some great things. And very much on the path to success long term,” Brady said in a part of the message.
He then tells AB that he is disappointed by his behavior over the months preceding the message.
“I, for one, am disappointed in many behaviors over the past few months. You have seemed to have lost that humility and that APG,” Brady continued.
Here is the full message.
Antonio Brown posts a text from Tom Brady on Snapchat, where Tom is seemingly trying to help @AB84, I'm guessing he's posting it to try and make Tom Brady look bad for caring? 🤷🤦
The interesting fact is that the message is dated May 10, 2021. That was when Antonio Brown was still with the Buccaneers. Hence the question, did Brady notice a changed AB before the world did?
NFL Twitter slams AB
Nobody knows why Antonio Brown decided to share the message on social media. But the NFL world on Twitter is certainly not happy with it. Many fans slammed AB for airing such a caring message from a well-wisher in public.
This fan said AB is mad at Tom Brady because of this reason.
He mad he got son’d by Brady cause he been acting childish
And this fan agrees with Tom Brady.
I'll have to agree with Tom. Sucks for AB because he had a lot of people behind him. But since his shameful dramatic quiting exit, all his antics just proved all the haters right. You are a let down and a disappointment, jokes on you AB. You have no credibility.
The timeline doesn’t make sense to this fan.
But it surely does to this fan.
It was from 2021 but clearly AB was showing erratic signs long before he went way off the rails. Brady saw the signs and tried to help him long before the public saw it.
Brown last played for the Buccaneers against the New York Jets in January 2022. While the game was still on, he removed his uniform, waved at the fans, and went to the locker room. AB did not come back to finish the game. A few days later, the Buccaneers terminated his contract.
After leaving the NFL, AB launched a rapping career for himself. He also works as the President of Kanye West’s Donda Sports agency. Was Brady right to send a message to AB? Above all, was AB right to share such a message in public?
