Controversial ex-NFL star greets crowd as he arrives at Trump rally to give speech
The Daily Mail ^ | 19 Oct 2024 | Isabel Baldwin

Former NFL star Antonio Brown has continued to show his support for former president Donald Trump ahead of next month's US presidential election.

The controversial former wide receiver arrived at the Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Latrobe, Pennsylvania for the Republican candidate's latest rally.

The ex-Steelers star, who left Pennsylvania in 2018 when he was traded to the Raiders, is expected to address the crowd of Trump supporters after teasing his appearance on social media earlier this week.

The Super Bowl winner arrived alongside fellow former Steeler, Le'Veon Bell, who donned a t-shirt featuring photos of Trump and opponent Kamala Harris with the slogan, 'Trump or the Tramp?'

The pair of former footballers greeted the crowd as they posed for selfies with the supporters waiting in line to enter the rally just under three hours before it is slated to begin.

Brown had hinted he would be making a speech earlier this week in a social media post, which contained a screenshot of an email allegedly from Trump's campaign.

'Time to help make REAL Change,' he wrote alongside the photo. 'Time to make a Difference. It is Time.'

Brown has been outspoken of his support of the 45th president online, most recently accusing NBC of plotting against fellow Trump supporter Elon Musk at a Steelers game earlier this month.

The X chief had whipped Pittsburgh fans into a frenzy as he attended a prime-time game at Acrisure Stadium - a day after joining Donald Trump on stage at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

“controversial”???

Just because he supports President Trump? Makes NO SENSE. But it is the DM, so business as usual.

Controversial because he’s known to be bi-polar and has done a lot of strange things at the end of his career.

He was a tremendous wide out.

There’s no reason for this loser to be anywhere near Trump. He doesn’t need his endorsement.

May be due to CTE.

BTW- gotta love the Le’Veon Bell shirt. Though I don’t know how much he’s loved in Pittsburgh at this point.

I’d say it’s definitely CTE.

There’s nothing controversial about Brown, he’s an idiot. Locker room poison. And an abuser.

NFL super star Antonio Brown embraces Donald Trump.

You can tell there’s a lot of love and respect here. Kamala will never get this. pic.twitter.com/kpfQlh3mCk— Philip Anderson (@VoteHarrisOut) October 20, 2024

She doesn’t need that kind of love. Mika and Joe tongue bathe her every day she remains relevant.
