Multiple reports indicate that Antonio Brown would become a football team owner. The former NFL wide receiver would join the Albany Empire’s ownership group. It is a team of the National Arena League, an indoor football league. The team is yet to announce the decision, and they could do the signing on Thursday at 10 am ET.

The Albany Empire has a significant position in the former All-Pro receiver’s heart. Brown’s father, Eddie, competed for the team in the 1990s when the franchise was the Albany Firebirds. Both father and son would be involved in the group. Antonio Brown also hinted at an enormous announcement on Twitter after landing in Albany, NY.
