Former Pittsburgh Steelers star receiver, Antonio Brown has tried to stay relevant since he got himself kicked off of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has tried making a couple of rap records, as well as make his own "news" company, among other questionable decisions. However, none of that has clearly worked out for him. Brown announced his failure on X, while also announcing other plans that he has for the summer.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Antonio Brown smiles as he takes in an AFL game.

From his CTESPN account, Brown announced that he has officially filed for bankruptcy. With all the bridges that he has burned, as well as his known refusal of paying anyone what they are owed, it makes sense as to why people are not interested in helping Brown to fund whatever he decides to do anymore. 

Brown did get a couple things right this offseason early in free agency, but since then, he has been wrong on almost everything with his supposed news source as far as NFL transactions go. It doesn't help that he keeps trying to inflate his own ego while announcing something that no one wants in their own lives. Either way, it just seems like a typical day in the life of Antonio Brown.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, Antonio Brown (84) used to be the top story for his highlight reel play, but now he's in the news for all the wrong reasons.


Steelers' Killer B's Era Would Normally Cement Brown As A Hall Of Famer

While Brown definitely has the stats that would make him a first-ballot Hall of Famer like he claims, his negative impact on numerous recent events could prevent that from happening. The NFL does not take kindly to anyone that outright disrespects them, and that could lead the Hall of Fame voters to leave him off their ballots.

Brown could have easily been the greatest wide receiver in NFL history had he not gone off the rails. His downward spiral will likely be investigated by scientists after he becomes deceased. While many people say Vontaze Burfict was the one that made him like this, there are stories from before that hit of him being insufferable and egotistical, including from his own stepdad, as well as Ryan Clark, his former teammate.

The New England Patriots released Antonio Brown after sexual assault accusations emerged.

Brown is still going to try to continue on his post-career football, as he announced that he will release another album over the summer. He still seems committed to running CTESPN, but how long will that last for? Only time will tell, because Brown doesn't like to admit defeat.
