Antonio Brown Has Been Released By Tampa Bay For His Outburst Immediately Following The Game
Well that didn’t take long. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are releasing Antonio Brown after his tirade in the 3rd quarter.
Brown will lose close to $1 million dollars by missing what should have been easy incentives with 1 game to go. Brown only needed 8 more catches to unlock a $333,333 bonus. 55 receiving yards to unlock another $333,333 bonus, and 1 touchdown to unlock another $333,333 bonus.
Brown was obviously quitting after one of the most bizarre episodes you will ever see on a football field, and head coach Bruce Arians wasted no time making the announcement following the game.
Brown will hit the waiver wire, but it is hard to envision any team giving him another chance after this latest episode.
