Fox Sports personality Colin Cowherd is of the opinion that the Pittsburgh Steelers will choose to trade star wide receiver Antonio Brown this offseason.
There has certainly been plenty of drama surrounding the Steelers organization this season, which started with running back Le'Veon Bell choosing to sit out the entire year due to a contract dispute.
Now, Pittsburgh finds itself dealing with a frustrated Brown, who has made his issues with the franchise well known at this point after several recent stories surfaced regarding his problems with certain aspects.
So, that has Cowherd believing that the Steelers will make the surprising decision to move Brown elsewhere.

Of course, losing both their top running back and wide receiver after missing the playoffs would not be an ideal development for Mike Tomlin's team.
After a 7-2-1 start on the season, the Steelers were unable to put together enough wins to firmly take control of the AFC North, which allowed the Baltimore Ravens to swoop in and earn the division title.
But it's clear that the Steelers have an interesting situation to deal with, as Brown's unhappiness isn't something that they want to have to deal with on a long-term basis.
Then again, they also don't want to have him go to another team and take his incredible yearly production along with him.
Cowherd probably isn't the only one that thinks Brown could be traded, but at this point, there are plenty of unknowns when it comes to how the Steelers will handle this entire deal.
