Antonio Brown injected himself into headlines yet again for a post that is out of character by comparison to the many rants he has gone on throughout the fall.
Antonio Brown injected himself into headlines yet again Tuesday, this time for a social media post that is out of character by comparison to the many rants he has gone on throughout the fall.
A post the free-agent wide receiver shared on his Instagram account included a picture of him in his Patriots uniform Sept. 15 and was captioned, “Mr.Kraft I apologize sincerely to you and your organization! All I wanted to be was an asset to the organization; sorry for the bad media and the drama! Thank you sincerely, AB”
Brown played in only one game this season, helping the Patriots (9-1) past the Dolphins with four receptions for 56 yards and one touchdown. He was released the following week after the NFL opened an investigation in response to accusations of violation of the NFL’s personal conduct policy — specifically, Brown is accused of sexual assault, harassment, and rape.
At different points since team owner Robert Kraft and the Patriots announced that Brown would no longer be a part of their team, Brown took to social media to attack the owner for his own legal case involving his visit to a massage parlor and engagement in sex acts.
A week after the NFL sat down with Brown for the first time since opening its investigation, Brown’s tone is apologetic.
