Once again, veteran wide receiver Antonio Brown has made the headlines in recent weeks. This time, he’s in the limelight for all the wrong reasons. League officials confirmed that the former Pittsburgh Steelers man will be suspended for the first eight games of the 2020 season. Despite not signing for any NFL franchise in the offseason, Brown will not be eligible for half the season.

He was seen last practicing with Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson and Seattle Seahawks’ Russell Wilson a couple of months ago. This sparked rumors of a potential return to the big league. However, the following tweet posted by Brown a couple of weeks ago hinted a potential retirement, his third one at that.

After the recent league ruling, Brown will be eligible to play in the NFL after Game Week 8. He continues to be linked with a host of top teams, including a potential union with Aaron Rodgers at Green Bay Packers.

He was selected in the sixth round (195th overall). However, after spending time with the Oakland Raiders (now Las Vegas Raiders) and the New England Patriots in the recent past, Brown currently finds himself without a team.
