“The Burfict Hit Definitely Had a Massive Effect on Him”: NFL World in Disbelief After Antonio Brown Appears “Matured” and Composed in Resurfaced Clip

Antonio Brown had been on the trending list since his controversial departure from MetLife Stadium. The scandalous tales kept coming in from every nook and corner of the world regarding the wide receiver. However, the resurfacing of an old interview with the QB creates scope for second thoughts for NFL fans. In the video, Antonio Brown seems calm and composed while talking about the gridiron.

The interview is from the year 2015 when he was still a Pittsburgh Steelers player. His expressions and way of talking seem like a far cry from the current behavior Brown keeps on doing. Antonio Brown is a one-time Super Bowl champion with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brown got complimented as the best receiver by a teammate

In the video, the interviewer mentioned that Brown’s then QB partner Ben Roethlisberger dubbed him as ‘The best receiver I’ve ever played with”. Meanwhile, Brown completed 1694 reception yards in the 2014 season for the Steelers, the highest in the NFL season. In addition to that, Brown holds the record for completing more receptions than any other player during the time period of 2010-2018.

The video is also reminiscent of the NFL fans as Brown discusses the transformation of the Steelers as a more offensive team rather than their historically famous defensive unit. “It has been. And things change, and obviously, for the past couple of years, we’ve been known for a great offense, and we got to wear that as a badge of honor.”, Brown stated when asked about the defensive prowess of the Steelers.

NFL community expresses disbelief over the humbleness of Antonio Brown recalling the Burfict incident

During the 2015 playoff, the Cincinnati Bengals‘ linebacker Vontaze Burfict hit Brown nastily. The hit gave Brown a severe concussion and made his boy go limp for some time. NFL people on Twitter think this incident changed Brown. They also discuss the possibility of Brown having CTE following the injury.

One fan shared the video explaining the situation Brown might have gotten into after the injury.

Many fans seem to agree to that, commenting their views on the post.

However, some other fans give reactions opposing that view.

Whatever may be the reason, this interview is a fresh breath of air for Brown after all the hiccups he is going through in recent times.
