Antonio Brown Career Earnings
By Mark Powell
The Patriots finally pulled the plug on Antonio Brown following multiple allegations ranging from failing to pay bills to sexual misconduct. As Brown awaits the NFL's decision as to whether or not he'll be eligible to play this season and the status of his civil suits, he at the very least has some substantial career earnings to fall back on for now.
Antonio Brown Career Earnings
Per spotrac, Antonio Brown has earned $71,001,203 to date, although some of that could be in jeopardy depending on the language in AB's deal with New England.
If Antonio Brown does not wind up receiving his $9M signing bonus from the Patriots (the first $5M was due to be paid on Monday), he will go from a $30M guarantee in March to $9M guaranteed to just $158,333 made for 2019.

Who Will Sign Antonio Brown?
No one, for now. It's unlikely that any NFL team would take a chance on Brown given the toxic fallout he's now been apart of in Pittsburgh, Oakland and New England. Two of those organizations remain the most respected in all of the NFL. If Brown can't make it work in the Steel City or Foxborough while sifting through these allegations, it's unlikely to be a possibility anywhere else.
Statement from Drew Rosenhaus, agent for Antonio Brown: "It's unfortunate things didn't work out with the Patriots. But Antonio is healthy and is looking forward to his next opportunity in the NFL. He wants to play the game he loves and he hopes to play for another team soon."

Antonio Brown XFL
This, for now, remains an option should Brown wish to continue earning game checks. The XFL has yet to make any comment on the possibility of adding Brown, but it would surely help league ratings. Whether that's worth the drama, however, remains an entire issue altogether.
