Antonio Brown seems thrilled to be a member of the Oakland Raiders. When it came time for his introductory press conference in the Bay Area, though, the superstar wide receiver didn't exactly make his affinity for his new team obvious.

According to Pro Football Talk, Brown was late on Wednesday for his first media briefing since being traded to the Raiders last week.

The good news: At least Brown didn't blow off the Raiders completely. In fact, the six-time Pro Bowler didn't only eventually show up for his press conference, but was caught on video by TMZ working out with Oakland quarterback David Carr at an area practice field several hours earlier on Wednesday. Perhaps Brown just needed some time to get fresh for the cameras?

The Raiders acquired Brown from the Pittsburgh Steelers over the weekend in exchange for third and fifth-round picks in the upcoming NFL draft. Oakland subsequently signed him to a three-year, $54.1 million deal that includes $30 million of guaranteed money.

Brown requested a trade in February following a 2018 season in which he routinely clashed with Steelers players and coaches, including superstar quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and longtime head coach Mike Tomlin. Though the team initially balked at honoring his desire to be dealt, a meeting with owner Art Rooney II apparently changed the team's approach, with both parties leaving the summit having publicly agreed that Brown and the Steelers should part ways going forward.

Brown had 104 catches for 1,297 yards and a league-leading 15 touchdowns last season for Pittsburgh.
