He was seen last practicing with Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson and Seattle Seahawks’ Russell Wilson a couple of months ago. This sparked rumors of a potential return to the big league. However, the following tweet posted by Brown a couple of weeks ago hinted a potential retirement, his third one at that.
After the recent league ruling, Brown will be eligible to play in the NFL after Game Week 8. He continues to be linked with a host of top teams, including a potential union with Aaron Rodgers at Green Bay Packers.

On a recent segment of ESPN’s Get Up, Antonio Brown was the topic of the discussion. The former Central Michigan State student famously joined the Steelers in 2010. He was selected in the sixth round (195th overall).

He was also booked for assault and battery earlier this year for which he was charged with two-year probation as well. The Packers are in dire need of some help in the offense department. The decision to trade up and draft Jordan Love in the first round of the NFL draft must have irked fans for sure.
