Oakland Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown has decided not to retire from the NFL as he threatened, but he still isn't practicing as he recovers from his foot issues.

The expectation is that he will join the team on Tuesday at the practice facility, but it's unclear how long it will take to fully recover and get back on the field. While Brown is working on getting back to the field, he is also looking for a new helmet and has taken to Twitter to try and find the perfect one.

Brown tweeted out on Tuesday morning that he was looking for a Schutt Air Advantage adult large helmet that was manufactured in 2010 or after. The big issue with Brown's old helmet is that it was older than ten years, so he can't wear it. If he can find a helmet that is less than ten years old, he can wear it. He has said that he will trade it for a signed practice worn Raiders helmet.

It's unclear how many are out there that people are willing to part with, but it might be smart to ask for more than just a signed helmet.

Brown has made it clear that wearing this helmet is important, and maybe asking for a little chunk of his new contract would be the way to go.

The good news for the Raiders is even though he isn't on the field, things are moving back in the right direction for him to be an essential part of the team this upcoming season.
