The sports world buzzed with the former Steelers Antonio Brown’s latest move. Brown plans to make a bold statement as debates about his behavior and possible CTE connection continue. Moreover, he confided in legendary Mike Tyson and discussed his game strategy. However, concerns surround Antonio Brown’s behavior, igniting CTE debates.

CTE is a degenerative brain condition. Although no formal diagnosis exists yet, still, his erratic actions and legal issues make people question a CTE link. Furthermore, this issue impacts Brown’s career and revives NFL player health discussions. However, looks like Brown is unfazed by those opinions, as apparently, he is aiming for a return to the Steelers. In his cryptic tweet, he wrote, “Heard the  @steelers need a WR.” But, what is grabbing headlines is his confession to ‘Iron Mike’ about his gameplay in a recent clip posted on the Twitter handle “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson.”

In the clip posted by Mike Tyson, we see the flamboyant side of Brown. Antonio Brown talks about the getting hit in football. Furthermore, he says getting tackled is inevitable in the sport. Talking more about himself,  he stated that he is a great player who took a few hits.

Brown believes that he took maybe “one big hit” in his career. Furthermore, he added that the big hit helped his team win. He focuses on the hit’s positive impact, not its potential harm to his health. Then, he concluded with a blatant claim as he asserted that he usually does the hitting, not the other way around. This reinforces his image as a dominant player.
