When the Oakland Raiders acquired Antonio Brown from Pittsburgh, the organization knew it was also acquiring the baggage that comes along with AB. Well, the wide receiver is unhappy about the NFL’s new helmet regulations which, combined with the frostbite, has forced him to miss almost all of training camp.
Raiders general manager Mike Mayock clearly was not going to hold back as to the reason for AB’s absence, and the general manager’s statement of: “He’s all in or he’s all out,” almost feels like an ultimatum. The organization has supported its star wide receiver from the moment he signed the $30 million guaranteed contract ($50 million with bonuses), so the frustration is justifiable.
