The Oakland Raiders released disgruntled star receiver Antonio Brown on Saturday before he ever played a game for the team.
Oakland instead decided to cut ties entirely. The Raiders had been counting heavily Brown after trading a third and fifth-round pick to Pittsburgh for the game's most prolific receiver in March. They also gave him a new three-year contract worth $50.1 million that now is void following the release. Brown posted on his Instagram account Saturday morning that he's not angry but wants the"freedom" to disprove his skeptics.
ESPN reported the new fine was for $215,073 for conduct detrimental to the team. That allows the Raiders to release Brown before the season opener without having to pay him more than $29 million in guarantees over the next two years, although Brown could still contest that in a grievance. The video ends with Brown saying,"I'm more than just a football player, man. I'm a real person. It ain't about the football. I know I can do that. I show you guys that on the daily. This is my life. Ain't no more games."
But Brown was unable to practice at the start of training camp after getting frost bite on his feet during a cryotherapy accident in France.
and got signed by the patriots 20 minutes later
He's a Patriot now.
He is such an a*hole..
Maybe this Prima Dona can hang out with Colin Kaepernick .
he made threats to the general manager in front of a team meeting.

Prima donna.
valerileist Don’t think he wanted to play with the Raiders. When will a guy like Antonio Brown just appreciate that he can make a lot of money playing a game.
Nut case, guy has Mental issues big time, worse the T Owens ever was
Sad that he has a God given talent and his ego is just too big.
It would be sad to watch another team pick him up .. He should be COLONIZED !! Placed on Asshole Waivers n permanently banned from NFL !
Bye 👋 The sense of entitlement among these prima donna’s in sports in general is astonishing . So disgruntled because they make 500 million over 600 million so abused,so tortured,what a victim ! All along not realizing they would be working at Walmart if not for the NFL!
Cancer
Cowboys will take him
He plays a GAME!!! Remember this! I like 🏈 as much as the next person BUT he plays a game. He was upset they let him go and well now he can be happy! 👋🏼

Good Riddance!
Chuckie?
He’ll be back in the ghetto in no time
AB is the donald trump of the nfl
Call Jay Z and see if he can re-negotiate your contract! Probably make you cut those dreads!🙄
Good they have a jail built into the new Raiders stadium in Las Vegas for people like him
current fantasy rosters 😂👇
You don’t reward bad behavior with rewards
Hope he never plays in the NFL again ..
What an ass! I'm so glad Pittsburgh is done with all his nonsense.
Smart move on their part🤠bet his setting out for A while🇺🇸🤠
bout time, who does he think paid him? TEAM Raiders, not team A. Brown.
There will some stupid owner out there that thinks they can control him .
Gone girl.
HighSierraMan Sadly, based upon a reading of Brown's entire amateur and pro history, it would appear unlikely that this tale has happy ending.

Poor attitude means you don't get to play. Don't take anything for granted.
Like I care about anyone that plays the bullshit ball game !! Guess he better wipe his tears away & go get a real job for a change & stop playing a kids game
AB was disrespectful! He has a negative combative attitude. He says he’s doing what’s best for him, well great but don’t be jerk about it. Good luck to him.. truly-
He's an embarrassment
Anyone that signs Antonio Brown now will simply empower his erratic, selfish and racist behavior. Which makes him a great fit with the Redskins NFL100
DJ_LEGION_ONE All over a helmet. Get over yourself dude.
Odds are that he will sign with the Patriots just like Randy Moss did. What say you America?
Good, ungrateful sod
The NFL is still on?
