About Antonio Brown
Antonio Tavaris Brown Sr. (born July 10, 1988), nicknamed "AB", is an American former professional football wide receiver who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 12 seasons. During his first nine seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Brown developed a reputation as one of the greatest receivers of his era, but his career was also marked by various controversies. Brown played college football for the Central Michigan Chippewas, earning first-team All-American honors as a punt returner and winning MAC Special Teams Player of the Year twice between 2008 and 2009. He was selected by the Steelers in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL draft. With Pittsburgh, Brown led the league twice in receiving yards, twice in receptions, and once in receiving touchdowns. He also earned seven Pro Bowl selections, including six consecutive, and four consecutive first-team All-Pro selections. Amid conflict with the Steelers, Brown was traded to the Oakland Raiders in 2019, but was released ahead of the season due to several off-the-field incidents. He later signed with the New England Patriots, appearing in one game before being released amid a sexual assault investigation. Brown returned to the NFL midway through the 2020 season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he was a member of the team that won Super Bowl LV. He was released near the end of the following season after leaving the field during a game. In 2023, Brown bought a majority stake in the Albany Empire of the National Arena League (NAL); the team ceased operations later that year.
