Antonio Brown Completely Backtracks on Previous Tweet About Never Playing in NFL Again

Antonio Brown or Antonio Clown?

In the history of the NFL, you’d be hard pressed to find a better combination than Antonio Brown and controversy. In the latest round of AB nonsense, he took to social media to denounce the NFL. Sure, that's all well and good, but merely hours later, he was suddenly appealing for a return.

History has shown that you don’t need to be a saint to play in the NFL. Michael Vick was convicted of a federal crime and spent 21 months in prison, and he was still welcomed back into the NFL after serving his sentence, after all. All things considered, I don’t doubt that AB can make an NFL comeback, but his propensity for self-destructive acts is tiresome. At this point, it's borderline comical.

As if all of this wasn't enough in one day's worth of Antonio Brown happenings, there's been rumblings that he's also been actively running a burner account to defend himself against the masses.

The social media age has given us a more personal level of connectivity with professional athletes. In the case of Antonio Brown, perhaps that isn't for the best.
