Antonio Brown says he wont play in NFL in 2022, hints at retirement
Twelve-year NFL veteran Antonio Brown says he won’t be playing football in 2022.
Despite having the skills to still compete at a high level in the league, Brown has developed such a poor reputation throughout the sport that many franchises around the NFL seem unwilling to sign him.
And it’s unsurprising since he unceremoniously ended a fantastic nine-year run — including four All-Pro seasons — in Pittsburgh over contract and helmet issues. He wore out his welcome with the New England Patriots in just one game. Then he actually helped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win a Super Bowl in 2021, only to force his way out of there after leaving a game midway through.
This is not to mention his myriad of issues off the field that has certainly made the idea of signing him a scenario that would make most NFL team PR departments develop a cold sweat.
