Brown claims that the Buccaneers called him to win the Super Bowl. And he helped them to do just that. But there was a difference between the way they treated Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski compared to Antonio Brown.
He asks, “If Tom Brady is my boy, then why am I playing for earning his salary?” Then the wide receiver talked about Gronkowski. “Gronkowski is boy, right? How much did he get paid?” One member of the podcast replied, “A significant amount.” To which Antonio added, “Alright, so why is AB on a prove-it deal?” This question has some solid weight in it.
