Antonio Brown is perhaps the most interesting personality in all of football. The 7x Pro Bowl receiver has seen his fair share of controversy, especially over the course of the last couple of years. But Brown received the ultimate reality check a few days ago, after his NAL team, Albany Empire, was kicked out owing to financial difficulties. However, in his latest post, the situation seems otherwise.
The team was bought by Brown earlier this year, but after reports of Brown not paying his players prior to the season, and now failing to pay the league their dues, his Albany team has been kicked out from the league. As he reconciles his losses and figure out his next path, Brown decided to make a loud announcement about his real business ventures to all his fans.

With a net worth of nearly $20 Million dollars, owed in large parts to his 12-season-long NFL career, Brown certainly has never had any shortage of money. But the former football star is bound to have suffered humongous losses following his failed ventures with the Albany Empire. But Brown needed to let his fans know about his ‘booming’ business, so he took to his Instagram Account with a new video.

In the video, Brown promoted a brand new gambling site to his fans, screaming about his success with it. He told all his 15.8 Million followers, “Business is booming.” The website, called Trap Casino, is mostly an online gambling website, and Brown was certainly getting paid heavily by the company for him to promote them on his Instagram account. But the timing of the video, just before Brown’s Twitter parade, was certainly interesting.

AB’s cash rant amidst severe future concerns
Ever since his failure with the Albany Empire, Brown has been notably active on his social media. He has especially taken to his platforms to flex the money he has piled up. Just a couple of after posting his IG video, Brown took to his other social media platform, Twitter, to post a video flexing stacks of cash piled on a table.
As Brown continues to pile up his losses with his failed ventures, concerns about his future are beginning to mount. While Brown has certainly closed off many of his chances to make a return to the NFL with his off-field antics, the WR has often hinted at wanting to make a return to the big leagues. After his hints at a reunion with Big Ben Roethlisberger and his earlier desires to join the Ravens following OBJ’s signing, is there still a chance for Antonio Brown to suit up in an NFL uniform once again? Only time can tell.
