Pittsburgh Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw is not a fan of Antonio Brown.
The Hall of Fame quarterback ripped the former Steelers and current New England Patriots wide receiver this week, saying he “wouldn't throw to him” if he were Brown's quarterback, according to Joe Rutter of The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
“I had no idea they catered to Brown as much as they supposedly did,” Bradshaw said, referring to Brown's nine-year tenure in Pittsburgh. “I can’t stand players like Antonio Brown.”
Brown's time with the Steelers came to an abrupt end at the end of the 2018 campaign after he went AWOL in the week leading up to the season finale and was benched as a result.
The 31-year-old then demanded a trade from Pittsburgh as soon as the season ended.
“Winning football games is all about the team and all about players caring about one another and everybody pulling together, not pulling apart,” Bradshaw said. “You can’t have Antonio Brown for all the greatness that they are, do you want the baggage that goes with that crap? I wouldn’t.
Bradshaw added that he's glad the Steelers unloaded Brown and wishes they would have done it a long time ago.
Of course, Pittsburgh traded Brown to the Oakland Raiders for a couple of draft picks, but it didn't take long for Brown to wear out his welcome there, as he lasted just a few months before requesting his release just before the start of the season.
The Raiders obliged, and Brown immediately went on to sign with the Patriots.
