Things have worsened for former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown, whose career production has been overshadowed by his many legal troubles off the field.According to Antonio Brown’s CTESPN Network brand, the mercurial former wide receiver filed

for bankruptcy on Monday. It was also noted that the Super Bowl 55 champion will release new music in the summer:Details regarding the bankruptcy haven’t been specified, but we’ll provide more information when it becomes available.According

to Spotrac, Antonio Brown made $80.744 million in endorsement money during his NFL playing career. Brown played for the Pittsburgh Steelers (2010 to 2018), New England Patriots (one game in 2019) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2020 and 2021). He

was briefly on the Oakland Raiders roster in 2019 following a trade from Pittsburgh, but they released Brown before the season started.

The seven-time Pro Bowler and four-time First-team All-Pro last played pro football for the Bucs in 2021. In a Week 17 game against the New York Jets, Brown infamously took his equipment off and ran out of the stadium after arguing with head coach Bruce Arians over his injury.

Since then, Brown has announced and unannounced his retirement through social media on multiple instances. But at this point, it’s obvious that he won’t play in the NFL again.

As previously noted, Antonio Brown’s dominance on the field was overshadowed by his long list of legal issues outside of football.

After forcing the Pittsburgh Steelers and Oakland Raiders to cut ties in an eight-month span, Brown signed with the New England Patriots in 2019. However, he was released after two women accused him of sexual assault and sexual misconduct.

In Jan. 2020, Brown and a friend were arrested for assaulting a truck driver outside his home. Brown was later ordered to pay the victim $1.2 million. And three times from Apr. to Oct. 2023, Brown was arrested for failing to complete child support payments.

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown, who may or may not be officially retired from football, was recently seen working out with two current NFL stars.Antonio Brown has announced his “retirement” on several occasions over the

years, only to follow it up by stating that he’s not actually finished with football. But considering he hasn’t played in almost three years now, it’s safe to assume that his controversial career is done.On his Instagram story, Seattle Seahawks Pro Bowl quarterback Geno Smith posted videos of himself throwing passes to both Brown and current Baltimore Ravens star wide receiver Zay Flowers.

Make of that what you will. Some folks will naturally wonder if Brown is still working out extensively with the hope of an NFL comeback, and if Smith himself is pushing for Seattle to sign the mercurial 35-year-old.

Brown spent his final season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021. He caught 42 passes for 545 yards and four touchdowns in seven games, but the Bucs released Brown after he took off his equipment and walked out of their Week 17, 2021 game against the New York Jets.

Brown had disagreed with Bruce Arians over his injury and was unhappy when the coach said he was done for the game.

Antonio Brown’s Once-Legendary Career Quickly Unraveled

Antonio Brown was previously on a Hall of Fame trajectory, earning seven Pro Bowl nods during his run with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was a four-time First-team All-Pro who led the NFL in both catches and receiving yards twice.

But Brown ruined his Hall of Fame case with his behavior as well as a series of disturbing off-the-field incidents that have led to several arrests.

Brown also had ugly divorces from the Steelers, Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots in a span of eight months. Throw in his unforgettable exit from Tampa, and it’s easy to understand why NFL teams have refused to take another chance on him.
