Especially given the level of competition he will face. For a player, who has dominated the NFL, the Arena League should be a cakewalk in comparison. For any fan of football, watching Brown back in action will certainly bring back memories of his scintillating performances when he played alongside the likes of Ben Roethlisberger and Tom Brady. His return shall certainly let the world know if the ship has finally sailed for an NFL comeback in the distant future for Antonio Brown.
