Antonio Brown and the Pittsburgh Steelers have been one of the hottest stories in the NFL over the past few weeks. Questions have been arising about whether the Steelers would trade their superstar wide receiver or if the two parties could smooth things over. Now, it has become obvious that Brown is done with the Steelers.
In his most recent Twitter post, Brown thanked Steeler Nation and made it clear that it was time for him to move on.
Thank you SteelerNation for a big 9 years…time to move on and forward……….✌🏽 #NewDemands pic.twitter.com/fbIoFNdqK4

If this doesn't signal the end of Brown in Pittsburgh, then a report from Adam Schefter will. He reported that Brown has officially requested a trade from the Steelers. That is something that the franchise will likely grant him after all the drama that has gone down.
Antonio Brown is one of the most lethal wide receivers in the NFL. He caught 104 passes for 1,297 yards and 15 touchdowns last season. Most teams would love to have that kind of production.
Needless to say, the market for Brown should heat up very quickly. Pittsburgh will have many offers to sift through and will have to figure out exactly what they're looking for.
Looking to the future, JuJu Smith-Schuster has proven that he is more than capable of shouldering a bigger workload and is ready to become the go-to target for Ben Roethlisberger.
All of that being said, Brown appears to be on his way out of Pittsburgh in the near future. The Steelers are going to be very busy working the phones over the next few weeks.
