“He’s a Guy Who Like Really Kind of Misunderstood”: Former Teammate Le’Veon Bell Gets Candid on Antonio Brown

Even after his abrupt departure from the NFL, Antonio Brown has remained in the spotlight. The athlete established a brilliant career with the Steelers and Buccaneers and also is rated an ace receiving corp. In the last several seasons, situations abruptly pivoted for him. Brown is not a popular figure amongst NFL fans. However, his former Steelers colleague Le’Veon Bell describes him as a misinterpreted person among fans.

Antonio Brown became a more prominent figure after his exit. He sides his alliance with rapper Kanye West and is channeling a similar representation of him. People have spotted him at the Super Bowl LVI and various other games, and maybe on the verge of buying an NFL franchise too.

Apart from this, he is active in his music career, making collaborations with Ye, and a representative of a sports venture, Donda Sports.

Antonio Brown: A Misunderstood Personality?

In early March, former Pittsburgh Steelers ace running back Le’Veon Bell sat down with KeeKee & Josh at the No Jumper Podcast to discuss his connection with Antonio Brown & his infamous shirtless walk-off from the Bucs vs. Jets game. When Josh questions about the wide receiver and his relations as a teammate, as he is in everyone’s mind right now, making into the headlines.

He recalls that, obviously, everything appears to be in a set order. Bell also had a conversation with Antonio. To the RB, it felt like wow, even with all that transpired on the sidelines alongside the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

He further mentions, “I feel like he’s a guy who is really misunderstood. He had some moments, but he’s obviously a great person. He’s a great father. He takes care of the things that need to be taken care of, and he’s kind of like a misunderstood person. He’s a goat. He’s just got a lot on his plate. And people were just misunderstood.”

In some ways, Bell resented himself for the misfortune and not being on the sideline when Brown began losing his cool. After seeing Brown’s deed, Bell says his former Steelers buddy isn’t who or what the public thinks he is.

Is Brown a competent player after all?

Antonio Brown accomplished career-high statistics, securing 928 receptions, 12,291 receiving yards,12,419 yards from scrimmage, and  83 receiving touchdowns. He was one of the most prominent athletes during his run with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was one part of the most formidable offense in the 2010s, where they sent most of their starting athletes to the Pro Bowl.

There seems to be a chance that Antonio Brown will resurface among the surprising transactions. Regardless of his shenanigans, no one will ever question his athletic abilities. And besides, some teams like the Seahawks, Packers, and the Chiefs might stand a gamble upon him.
