Wide receivers in the National Football League have often been likened to the “divas of the gridiron.” Some of that comes from their penchant for celebration or their flashy style but it can also come from ego. The Steelers’ Antonio Brown is one of the hardest working guys in football and that’s something that any fan can appreciate. But he also has a little bit of ‘diva’ to him and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In his case, I believe it actually drives him to be better.
With Ben Roethlisberger on the sidelines last week, it was only natural to figure that Brown’s numbers would suffer.
