Since his controversial departure from the Buccaneers, Antonio Brown‘s career and reputation have spiraled downward.  AB continues to grab the spotlight with outlandish claims and broken promises, consistently disappointing fans week after week. Furthermore, he consistently finds himself embroiled in controversies as he fearlessly exchanges jabs with athletes from various sporting domains. And his most recent target was none other than his former teammate, Tom Brady.

The 7x Pro Bowl recently appeared on Tyreek Hill’s podcast ‘It Needed To Be Said,’ where he did not hold back while blaming TB12 for his famous walk-off from the field, which eventually led to his departure from the league. During the interview, AB asserted that it was Brady who persuaded him to continue playing despite being injured. However, merely a week after casting aspersions on his former teammate, Brown appears to be poised to tread a similar path to that of TB12.

Will AB receive a similar offer to that of Tom Brady?

It has only been a year since TB12’s record-breaking deal with FOX that promised to make him the top-paid sports analyst following retirement. This $375 million deal became the subject of intense discussion as it surpassed the earnings of lead analysts. Brady then went on to reveal how sports media giant ESPN had also reached out to him with a similar deal. Although he refused the said deal, his former teammate might have other plans.

Brown recently took to Twitter, to announce his partnership with ESPN. The sports media giant has been doing some restructuring in the company for the last few months. Several hosts were let go and numerous shows were canceled. Despite these changes, ESPN undoubtedly has strategic plans for future NFL coverage. Antonio Brown has the potential to fill the gap by bringing his distinctive perspective to the table.

Despite Antonio Brown’s announcement, there have been no official confirmations from the media giant. And he is certainly known for spreading false promises. Therefore, it didn’t take long for the NFL world to rip on him after the announcement.

Brown’s reputation is no mystery to the NFL community

It is understandable for fans to express their criticism towards AB considering his recent controversies, which only serve to highlight his consistent failure to uphold promises. Just a few weeks ago, Brown left disappointed fans in the arena after assuring them he would play on the field. Despite the outcry over his excuses, he remained unfazed by the backlash.

Brown’s track record also includes failed business ventures. His recent acquisition of a minority stake in NAL’s Albany Empire led to a series of controversies, ultimately leading to the team’s expulsion from the league. Despite accusations of not paying his players and coaches, he proceeded to deflect the blame onto the league, alleging mistreatment.

Over the years, Brown’s reputation has gradually deteriorated, portraying a destructive pattern. His constant pursuit of attention on social media and his unsuccessful business endeavors have consistently generated negative press. While the status of his purported deal with ESPN remains uncertain, it raises questions about whether this venture will meet the same fate as his previous endeavors, destined to crash and burn.
