It appears that being on the Oakland Raiders has energized Antonio Brown and that is contagious for his teammates.  One thing that has stood out from Raiders practice is how Brown has handled himself in practice, always giving 100 percent, and that is something that his teammates and coaches have taken notice of.

“If you’re in that group, especially if you’re in that wide receiver group, you’re going to have to jump in and follow his lead,” said Raiders offensive coordinator, Greg Olson via Silver and Black Pride. “And again, he doesn’t ask them to do anything that he doesn’t do. . . even though his experience in this league has been so [extensive], he still practices at a very high level.”

The wide receiver room looks different than last year with the team adding Brown, Tyrell Williams, Ryan Grant, and JJ Nelson, but with the veteran leadership, there comes good change.

“We’re bringing the juice, challenging each other every day, competing and just holding each other accountable,” said Brown. “Knowing what to do, knowing how to do it, and bringing the meetings to the practice field, and being able to execute.”

Brown thinks by the veterans giving it all, that allows the younger guys to see how to work in the league, and everyone's game is raised by it.

Even though Brown has been criticized by many for his talk and antics there is one thing that is no doubt, this guy works his butt off every day to get better, and all he wants to do is win ballgames.
