Pats reportedly likely on the hook for Antonio Brown signing bonus

As much as it may pain New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft to do so, it’s increasingly likely he’ll eventually be forced to pay ex-receiver Antonio Brown a $9 million signing bonus in full. Reports from both WEEI’s Ryan Hannable and Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson seem extremely confident in such an outcome being attained… though both admit it might not happen until next year.

New England cut Brown after new information came to light that suggested the receiver had sent threatening text messages to one of the women who had previously accused him of sexual misconduct.
