Antonio Brown Putting Off Surgery
3 years agoFree-agent wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) said he hasn't had ankle surgery yet and doesn't plan to unless a team commits to signing him. Interesting strategy from a 33-year-old receiver that was last seen abandoning the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by walking off the playing field last season. Brown was subsequently cut by Tampa, and given the new information on his status, it doesn't seem likely that he'll be playing in the NFL in 2022. The seven-time Pro Bowler and four-time first-team All-Pro has had a handful of off-the-field issues since leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2018, but he helped the Buccaneers win the Super Bowl two seasons ago. In seven games in Tampa in 2021, he had 42 catches for 545 yards and four touchdowns on 62 targets.
