Oakland Raiders Release Antonio Brown
The Big Lead ^

Antonio Brown’s various antics have all come to a head on the day the regular season begins. After everything that happened, the Oakland Raiders fined Brown and subsequently voided all of his $30 million in guarantees. Brown asked for his release via Instagram, and has gotten his wish.
Brown’s talent is clear. But at this point, teams must consider when the talent no longer outweighs the headache. The Raiders traded a third and a fifth-round-pick for Brown over the offseason, and handed him a new contract extension as well. It’s all over now.
Someone will be interested in kicking the tires, no doubt. But if Brown can’t get with the program, it’s hard to imagine any team willing to bring on a player with his baggage, no matter how talented.

What an idiot. Lost millions because he has no self-control. He’ll end up in prison.

He just pissed away 30 million dollars because he chooses to act like a child in man's world.
All that talent and not a lick of sense. And the Steelers got two early draft picks for him - what a steal!

Nobody will sign him this late in the year and risk dropping a live grenade in their locker room mid season. He’ll be 32 before he gets another shot. So, he’s basically done. $30 million pre-tax flushed down the commode. Mental illness, no doubt.

None. If a dysfunctional mutant in the NFL can’t even keep a job with the RAIDERS, then his career is over.

My money would be on Carolina Pathers, or any of the teams from Florida.

Which team takes a stab at this clown? If he's too bat-sh*t crazy for the Raiders then I can't imagine another team willing to take the risk.
How long before he becomes touted as a Kaepernich, junior?

NFL players have the right to kneel and act like 12 year olds.
I have the right to comment on FR, to not care, and to not watch them.
