BOSTON (CBS) — Antonio Brown’s Patriots career is over after one game.

ADVERTISING

After a controversial day, the Patriots released the wide receiver from their roster.

“The New England Patriots are releasing Antonio Brown,” Patriots spokesperson Stacey James said. “We appreciate the hard work of many people over the past 11 days, but we feel that it is best to move in a different direction at this time.”

The news broke Friday, just moments after Brown shared some posts on social media that indicated something was about to take place. He posted a photo of himself and Tom Brady to his Instagram page, saying, “Love ya champ that was fun ! #GoWinIt #DoitforMe”

Judging from his texts, the guy is nearly illiterate. Any chance yet another team will find him just too tempting to pass up and take a chance on him? Maybe the Dolphins?

Hmmm...Not sure what to think on this one.

1) it’s the NFL so I really don’t care
2) What did he actually do that was wrong? He hit on a woman and she refused him? Did he force himself on her after that? Did he rape her? Or grope her? (If not what’s the problem)?
3) He fired her (doesn’t give any proof of the real reason she was fired). Plus it was for a painting in his home. Plenty of reason to fire someone you don’t feel comfortable with in your home. Kind of like forcing a baker to bake a gay wedding cake (in reverse).

Bottomline: If he raped her or groped her he was wrong. Otherwise I’m having trouble seeing the issue.

I suspect a lot of Patriot fans expressed their displeasure of having Brown on the team, especially after Aaron Hernandez.

All the stuff coming out about him in the last 72 hours was why the Patriots cut him. And NO, Jerry Jones will not sign Antonio Brown after the bad Greg Hardy and Dez Bryant experiences of recent years (Jerry Jones' son Steven is the real power behind the team, and Steven is way less tolerant of miscreant players).

In one text, he did admit to doing “something” to the trainer’s back.

Funny that the Dolphins picked up Taco Charlton just in time for them to play the Cowboys.

I wonder what kind of reception the Jerry World crowd will give him?

With his command of the language and writing skills, he could get a job with any newspaper.

Yep - except "white privilege" dooms him to a low-paying 'manual labor' job, even though he's smarter, better educated, and obviously better qualified than all those inbred "white cracker" morons, who got their fancy newspaper jobs just because of their lily-white skins!

Social media is the devil. My spouse and I do not use it. It destroys people’s lives.

Here are AA men with the most incredible God given talent and they throw it away on a stupid post.

New tonight: Antonio Brown sent our source from Monday’s story menacing group text messages, including a picture of her children with instructions for his associates to investigate her.

Her lawyer wrote the NFL calling for the intimidation to stop. https://t.co/rCTM8WSI6Z https://t.co/QtONzBf7Ig

Whats being reported is that he posted pictures of her kids as in, I know where your kids are. That’s threatening. If I were on the jury I would think so no matter what words were attached to the posts.
