Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown will not be traded to the Buffalo Bills, as Bills general manager Brandon Beane confirmed.
Early Friday morning, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported that the Bills and Steelers were close on a trade for the seven-time Pro Bowler. That report was quickly refuted by Brown and several media outets.
“We inquired about Antonio Brown on Tuesday, and kept talks open with the Steelers," Beane said in a statement. "We had positive discussions, but ultimately it didn’t make sense for either side. As great a player as Antonio Brown is, we have moved on and our focus is on free agency.”
According to The MMQB's Albert Breer, Brown made it known that he didn't want a trade to the Bills. Breer also reports that there are "very few options left" for the Steelers to trade Brown.
