The NFL is a grand affair. It comprises players who promise talent and bring with them unmatched skill sets to make their teams win. However, there are certain players that drift from the path of a player and spiral down as their career progresses. Antonio Brown, the former SB champion was an NFL enigma. However, his otherwise celebrated career was marred with controversies.
Now, AB has been hit by another turbulence. This time, AB is making headlines for missing a child support payment to one of his exes. It’s been four months since the wide receiver paid the child support dues and is now attracting strict legal action. It’s a topsy-turvy path for the once-revered player whose glory days are long behind him. The amount is close to $30,000 and needs to be paid to avoid getting into jail. However, with all the child support drama going on, AB has found a resounding support through one of his fans.

There’s no denying in saying that Antonio Brown was a talented NFL player. Before his career went down a downward path, the WR was winning games for his side.
