Antonio Brown ripped his uniform off and then quit on his Tampa Bay Buccaneers teammates.

Antonio Brown quitting on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers mid-game is the strangest thing the NFL has seen since Vontae Davis quit on the Buffalo Bills at halftime years ago.

In a road game vs. the lowly New York Jets, apparently, Brown had enough. Frustrated beyond all belief, he proceeded to rip of his jersey and walk around MetLife Stadium shirtless before quitting on the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay wide receiver Mike Evans tried to talk him out of it, but there was nothing he could do. This has to be the end of Brown’s NFL career. He needs some serious help.

Here is how the NFL world reacted to Brown completely melting down at MetLife vs. Gang Green.

You do not quit on your teammates like this.

Why did Antonio Brown leave?

Ultimately, the Buccaneers have to regroup. They are not playing great football vs. the Jets and have one more game vs. the lowly Carolina Panthers before the NFC playoffs. Repeating as Super Bowl champions will be incredibly difficult as is, but the fallout from Brown quitting on the team is all anyone will talk about when its comes to the NFL for the next 72 hours or so. This is really bad.

Fellow wide receiver Mike Evans tried to calm down his fellow wideout on the sidelines, but it did not work, as Brown left the game and ripped his shirt off in the process.

In an age where college players opt-out of bowl games, it was only a matter of time before NFL players opted out of games they initially agreed to play in.
