Antonio Brown has made a ton of headlines this year, most of them coming during his short tenure with the Oakland Raiders. Following his release from Oakland, Brown wasted no time signing a one-year deal with the New England Patriots to team up with Tom Brady. He has wasted even less time scoring his first touchdown with his new team.
In the Patriots' Week 2 matchup with the lowly Miami Dolphins, Brown made an immediate impact. He had three catches for 36 yards early in the game and then made his first huge play for New England.
Brady was able to find Brown for a 20-yard touchdown to put the Patriots up 14-0 against the Dolphins. Take a look at the play for yourself:

Clearly, Brown is still one of the top wide receivers in the NFL. He may have a lot of drama surrounding him right now, but his play on the field has not changed. New England's offense is going to be nearly unstoppable with the superstar wide receiver now catching passes from Brady.
Bill Belichick and company look like a good bet to start the season 2-0. They are considered one of the top Super Bowl contenders in the league once again this season.
Brown is going to be a big part of the Patriots' bid to win another championship and he is off to a great start.
