Antonio Brown had a flourishing career in the NFL before he walked out of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers early last year. Since then, the former wide receiver has done all kinds of stuff from diving into business to rap concerts. But it looks like trouble follows him wherever he goes these days. Brown is in a fix after a former friend dialed him a wake-up call with a million-dollar item in question.

The friendship between Brown and celebrity jeweler Shuki International has extended beyond the boundaries of their shared love of art and fashion. They have traveled the world together and stuck with each other in good times and bad. But the friendship has developed a bit of a crack over some items worth over a million.

Celebrity jeweler Shuki International has sued former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown over a million-dollar worth of jewelry. But there is a twist. He will take it all back if the former Buccaneer just returns the items.

According to Shuki, he has no bad blood with the Super Bowl champion. In fact, he will continue his collaborations with the wide receiver. He just wants the diamonds he lent to Brown in 2022 that are worth over a million dollars.

Shuki is ready to sell the item to his old friend if he wants to keep it. All the former NFL route runner has to do to keep them is pay for them. And returning is always an option.

Shuki and Brown go long back, and this is probably just a misunderstanding. After all, the duo has seen a lot together.

The friendship goes way back 

Antonio Brown’s friendship with Shuki has a good history. They have traveled to different parts of the world to attend art and fashion shows. Brown also went to Shuki’s home country of Israel and had a great time there.

Their international travels strengthened their friendship. So much so that despite the challenges that Brown has faced in his personal and professional life, Shuki has remained a steadfast friend and confidant, providing support and encouragement along the way.
