New England Patriots wide receiver Antonio Brown will be on the field when the team faces off against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

According to Schefter, the NFL will not place Brown on the commissioner exempt list because there is currently no criminal investigation. The NFL is still reviewing the case and part of that process will be interviewing Brown and his accuser.

Brown is being accused of sexually assaulting his former trainer and on Thursday he went live on Instagram to slam his critics. Brown said no matter what anyone says his work won't ever stop.

“The work don’t stop,” Brown said via the New York Post. “No matter what they say, no matter what they hate, somebody’s still gotta go to work.”

“Call God,” he added. “In a time of crisis, all I ask is love, dedication and focus. Stay focused. The devil is going to try to bring you down when you get closer to your goals. The key is, don’t let him.”

Brown also said he thinks they need to have a Team USA football team so that the players can get as much love as basketball stars.

“I was thinking about it,” Brown continued. “All the basketball players in the world, all the soccer players in the world — they get love and embrace. Maybe we need a football U.S.A. team so the world can love us, because all we get is hate.”

On Sunday against the Dolphins, it's still unclear how much Brown will play, but he will be yet another weapon that Tom Brady can use.
