Antonio Brown is once again at the center of the limelight. Recently, Brown, who bought the team his father used to play for, the Albany Empire, was seen shaking hands with fans and taking pictures. He was escorted out by a security guard in the video, which Tony Jefferson reposted on social media. After Tony’s hilarious take on the video, Lamar Jackson responded to his post, politely asking him to delete his account.

However, security confronted members of his staff when they were seen on the playing surface. Brown claimed he owned the team, but security did not believe him, resulting in a confrontation.

Lamar Jackson warns Tony Jefferson over Antonio Brown controversy

Despite Albany winning their opener against the Orlando Predators, the incident sparked controversy, with opinions divided on whether Antonio Brown was in the right or had overstepped his bounds.

7-time NFL Pro-Bowler, Antonio invited a local Pop Warner football team to watch the game. However, there were safety concerns with kids on the field during the lowering of the championship banner during halftime. And when security tried to remove AB from the area, AB told them that he is one of the owners. However, to everybody’s surprise, the security personnel did not believe the WR.

There was also a dispute about former Buccaneers WR Antonio Brown’s ownership and workers’ compensation payments, with co-owner Mike Kwarta claiming that Brown had not bought him out, per a TimesUnion report.

“I do wish him success with the team, because the idea of me walking away is so that he can do what he needs to do, what he feels is best, at this point to keep this brand going, keep what we have created and the sustainability of the team over the last two years,” Kwarta said, explaining his decision to sell his shares to Brown.

Kwarta became the majority owner of the Albany Empire in 2021, taking over from Tridico and Starling who revived the NAL franchise. Brown’s previous claim of owning 100% was denied by Kwarta.
