Antonio Brown was one of the best wide receivers in the league. The former Steelers star has made a lot of headlines on and off the field. Currently a free agent, he played for multiple franchises over the course of his career. AB, after walking out on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is currently trying to make a name for himself in the music industry. The WR-turned rapper has released a few tracks over the years.

After this move from the Steelers, Brown changed franchises frequently. But it was his stay at the Patriots that came under scrutiny. Brown has always found himself in trouble with the management because of his unusual antics.

Brown’s $30 million grievances against the Patriots

In 2019, Brown made the move from the Oakland Raiders to the Patriots. He signed a one-year contract worth $10.5 million with the then reigning Super Bowl Champions. The Raiders did not appreciate the trade. They felt Brown had always intended to go to the Patriots, but couldn’t make the move from the Steelers.

Brown’s stay at the Patriots was short-lived. Soon after joining, he was plagued by injuries, including frostbite from a cryo-chamber. After he recovered from that, the WR didn’t stay for long. He couldn’t come to terms with the franchise over some helmet issues. AB played only one game for the Raiders before being released early into his contract.

Apparently, Brown had $30 million guaranteed as part of his contract and he wanted the amount paid to him after his release. He filed multiple grievances to claim the amount from the franchise. However, Raider’s owner Mark Davis submitted text messages sent by Brown himself, requesting an early release. This crucial piece of evidence meant that it was not the Raiders who had let him go, but they did it at Brown’s own requests.

What happened after Antonio Brown moved from the Steelers?

The WR moved on from the Steelers after the 2018 season. He joined the Oakland Raiders briefly before getting released and joining the Patriots.
