Oakland Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown is one of the most polarizing figures in the NFL. Some just focus on his greatness as a player. Others can't get past his tendency to be kind of a diva.

Count former NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky in the latter group.

Following Brown's tweet in which he told Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback and former teammate, Ben Roethlisberger, to “shut up already,” Orlovsky called the wideout an “attention-seeking drama queen”:

Orlovsky also issued a warning to Derek Carr and the Raiders, saying he is hoping they have been paying attention to Brown's antics because this is the type of locker room presence they are getting.

Oakland acquired Brown in a trade with the Steelers earlier this offseason, sending a third-round draft pick and a fifth-rounder to Pittsburgh in return.

Since Brown has arrived, controversy has followed, whether it be the 31-year-old sustaining frostbite on his feet as a result of not wearing the proper footwear in a cryotherapy chamber or engaging in a battle with the NFL over the usage of his now-banned helmet, filing two grievances (and losing both) in the process.

There is no questioning Brown's talent. The man has made seven Pro Bowls and is one of the most productive wide receivers in the history of the game, but his attitude issues has to be making the Raiders wonder if he was really worth it.
