People expected to see a classic game to open the new year with a bang. But thanks to the stunt pulled by Antonio Brown, everyone will remember this game for a different reason. Tom Brady ultimately won the game for his team with one of the best comebacks of the season, but Antonio walking out made more headlines.

The Buccaneers stood and watched their wide receiver abruptly walk off the field. If this was an effort to be kicked out of the team, Brown has been successful. The Buccaneers head coach has made it clear that Antonio Brown is no longer a Buc. Antonio Brown seems to have embraced this comment on his Instagram.

In the middle of the third quarter, Antonio took his jersey off and left it in the stands. Then he proceeded to take off his gloves and undershirt. He threw those things in the crowd and walked off the field. Both the teams stopped and watched Brown take off. 

After leaving the Buccaneers high and dry, Antonio took it to Instagram to give us an update. On his official Instagram account, he uploaded a picture. The picture was of him in a Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ uniform and helmet. Brown put a caption on the post. He wrote, “Big MAD (Making A Difference)” Antonio then added, “Thanks for the opportunity.” Does this mean that Antonio Brown is saying goodbye to the Buccaneers?
