Superstar wideout Antonio Brown has been suspended for eight regular season games for the upcoming 2020 season. As you probably know, the NFL has been investigating the Super Bowl champion for about a year now. The league came out today with its decision, saying…
“Antonio Brown was notified today by NFL Special Counsel for Conduct Todd Jones that he has been suspended without pay for the first eight regular-season games of the 2020 season for multiple violations of the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy.”
Antonio was initially being investigated for what was termed as credible instances of sexual assault. He had a longtime trainer and friend from college come out and say Antonio raped her in his home during a training session.
Another woman, an artist, says AB made multiple unwanted sexual advances toward her, and then stiffed her for a mural she painted for his home in Pittsburgh. Antonio was subsequently investigated for sending the woman what the league has been calling “menacing text messages.”
In addition, AB has had numerous public episodes of terrible behavior toward the mother of his children, and it’s believed Antonio Brown beat up a truck driver simpy trying to deliver something to his home.
In their statement the NFL also added this…
“As part of the discipline, Brown was directed to continue his program of counseling and treatment, and that he is expected fully to cooperate with his clinicians. Brown was advised that any future violation of the Personal Conduct Policy will likely result in more significant discipline.”
So there you have it, finally resolved.. Antonio Brown is under suspension and evidently, under the gun. What will AB do? First things first… let’s find a team, baby. Until the next time it drips…
