Tom Brady carried the Bucs to a phenomenal 24-28 victory after Antonio Brown’s dramatic exit in the mid-game. He did not seem to be affected by the veteran receiver leaving the game. He turned to his young receivers to help him get the Buccaneers out of the misery.
While, on the other hand, Brown’s bare-chested march across the field made him the highlight of the week. He bailed on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the MetLife Stadium when they were trailing to the Jets by 14 points at the third quarter of the game. His outburst became the funniest and the weirdest moment of the season, and the internet took full advantage of it.

Tom Brady on Antonio Brown
During the post-game interview, Tom Brady was asked about being bailed by Antonio Brown at such a crucial moment of the game. The quarterback replied, “Yeah, I mean that’s obviously a difficult situation, and I think we all want him to — I think everybody should hopefully do what they can to help him in ways that he really needs it.”
The quarterback evidently did not show signs of agitation on the veteran. Rather, he follows an empathetic approach towards him. Tom Brady believes that the receiver has been going through some bad times in his life. Furthermore, he adds that Brown needs help from others that should probably calm him down.

However, the views by head coach Bruce Arians were quite the opposite. When Arians was asked about the same. he simply replied, “He [Antonio Brown] is no longer a Buc.” With that, Brown has put his career in jeopardy. Clearly, the coach has had enough of his mischiefs and now it is time for him to leave.
