Antonio Brown Is Ensuring His NFL Career Is Over

Antonio Brown is committing another NFL sin. It is more subtle than ripping off his jersey and walking off the field mid-game. It’s not as dangerous as the worst allegations against him, like sexual assault, throwing furniture off a 14th-floor balcony or obtaining a fake COVID-19 vaccination card. But this could finally end his career, because Brown is doing what NFL players do at their own risk: He is telling his side of the story.

Via social media, he says he told the Bucs he couldn’t play on his injured ankle and they ordered him to play anyway.
