Free agent wide receiver Antonio Brown sent out an expletive-laden tweet around noon on Thursday complaining about the NFL. Brown said he was sick of conforming to a system that he believes treats him unfairly. He went on to say, “F--- the NFL I’ll never play,” seemingly providing a definitive answer to a question that’s been circulating since his release from the Patriots ahead of Week 3.

Brown also posted a since-deleted Instagram of himself that conveyed a similar, less explicit message. It read, “F--- @NFL I’m going down another path no more making money off my blood and sweat!
