Antonio Brown has no deals currently
It’s still not clear if Brown would ever play again. Before his tweets came in, no team had indicated whether they are interested in getting him on board. The 32-year-old recently violated the NFL’s discipline and personal conduct policy.
He was involved in multiple off-field allegations that violate the league’s rules. It’s understood that no team was willing to bring in a player to their camp who could hurt their image in the future.
Trying times for the wide receiver
The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Brown sometime back in 2010. Since then, he quickly became one of the best wide receivers that the NFL had ever seen. He led the league in terms of catches and receiving yards.

However, he was too wild a horse for the coaches at Pittsburgh to break in. Therefore, the Steelers were forced to trade him to the Las Vegas Raiders in 2019.
His time at the Raiders was riddled disappointments as he was enduringly benched following an offseason full of drama. Following this, he joined the New England Patriots and managed to play just one game before getting dropped again.
