The Antonio Brown news machine keeps chugging along. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, Brown is poised to file up to nine grievances/appeals, which would be a league-record number of filings generated from one season for one player (though as Mark Maske of the Washington Post tweets, no grievance has been filed yet).
Schefter helpfully summarizes the potential filings as follows:
• Fine appeals with the Raiders: $215K
• Salary guarantees with the Raiders : $29MM
• Signing bonus with the Raiders: $1MM
• Unpaid Week 1 salary from the Raiders: $860K
• Salary guarantees with the Patriots: $1MM
• Signing bonus with the Patriots: $9MM
• Unpaid Week 3 salary from the Patriots: $64K
• 2020 option year with the Patriots: $20MM
• Potential appeal of NFL suspension
The consensus seems to be that Brown is likely to win his grievance against the Patriots for the $9MM signing bonus. However, as Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports confirms, that matter will probably not be resolved until 2020.
The NFL’s investigation into accusations of sexual assault/misconduct levied against Brown by two different women is ongoing. Despite reports that teams remain interested in Brown — reports championed by Brown’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus — Brown himself has indicated that he is done with the NFL, and he recently enrolled in online classes at Central Michigan University.
Sounds like someone who several teams are interested in bringing back
Hahahahaha
When do we all get to the point where we no longer care? I know I’m there. Anyone else?
Yes
I don’t want to read anymore about this Ass!
The ass is back. lol
I was already there when he was a Squeeler.
LOL!
You’ll are done hearing about him but yet you still click the article
Ditto!
Is Brown still living in Brady’s house?
Question for the ages
Never did live there
Was only invited
what an idiot
Can Antonio even count to 9?
That’s what agents are for. 🙂
He sure can’t spell it
Sure…….if he uses a thumb.
He doesn’t have to be able to count to 9, he hires people to do that for him…and then stiffs them on their pay.
He’ll win the signing bonus cases – but nothing else.
Maybe not depends upon how the contracts were written and if his withholding of the legal issues triggers the voiding of the bonus payments.
I bet he wins the 2 game check ones too. Especially the Oakland one.
Why would he win the game check from Oakland. He didnt play 1 snap? He’s gonna get the Pats game check because they played him. Everything else is down the drain. Im sure NE wrote up one hell of a contract after his departure from Oakland.
I hope he ends up having to sell signed small towels
I am so sick of his Schiste!!!
Gotta stop cussin man,but still this guy is nuts!!!
I’ll bet he’s cheating in the online classes.
No. He failed to show up. Hes gonna sue CMU and the ncaa Because somebody parked in his parking spot at his online class
Badda Bing!
The only one more revolting than Brown in all of these stories is his piece of s**t agent.
i cant really blame him here. he probably has nothing better to do
The dude is just trying to get paid. He had money lined up and this clown ruined it. Im honestly surprised his agent hasn’t dropped him
after these grievances he very well might
You raise an interesting point. These ridiculous grievances must have some kind of merit (a couple anyhow). What we don’t know is the contract language.
don’t be a dumbshit and none of this would happen
And he’ll lose each one cause he’s a dipsh*t
Gonna need the money to pay all his legal bills.
Ah, the daily Antonio Brown story. Ho hum…..
Major pile of dung. Only thing worse is his agent.
One grievance for every time he should have been fired.
Have fun trading your career for one single grievance check.
Good luck Antonio. I doubt you beat Kraft in a legal duel.
