Antonio Brown just shared a very cryptic Instagram photo

Antonio Brown just shared himself wearing a New England Patriots uniform.
If your day wasn’t crazy enough, check out what Antonio Brown put up on Instagram.
The former perennial Pro Bowl wide receiver of the Pittsburgh Steelers had the audacity to post on his account him in a New England Patriots uniform from that one game he played for them last season.
Brown’s departure from the Steelers was the definition on an unmitigated disaster. Just ask the Las Vegas Raiders and the Patriots how their 2019 experiences with him transpired.
If the image of Brown wearing red, white and blue didn’t let you know what’s up, that red siren emoji sure did. How many minutes to midnight are we these days? Better set that NFL doomsday clock to 11:59 p.m. and get ready for tonight’s epic fireworks show. Surely, you dogs and small children will hate it, but get ready to be amazed like you would at a three-ring circus.
What is Antonio Brown up to now posting himself in a Patriots uniform?
Would the Patriots welcome Brown back with open arms? They could, but head coach/general manager Bill Belichick is a big believer in grudges. Then again, when did you ever think Cam Newton gave off the vibe he’d be all-in with The Patriot Way? The world is changing before our very eyes. Adapt or die as the old adage goes.
So would the Patriots welcome Brown back after last year’s cup of coffee? Surely, he’ll be suspended at least a few games for last year’s antics. Maybe the Patriots should lose another draft pick for signing him? Give it to the Raiders in a football helmet for safe-keeping. They’ll appreciate the gesture, but it will never make up for The Tuck Rule. Somethings never change.
If Brown gets to play for the Evil Empire again, that would be so 2020, you have no idea. His former best bud with the Patriots Tom Brady is now with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Though the Buccaneers would be the NFC favorites if he were to link up with the Florida Gulf Coast pirates, maybe the Patriots are good enough again to play in the AFC Championship Game again?
No matter where Brown ends up, if he does join a team, it will lead the sports news cycle.
