Antonio Brown’s Attorney Absolutely Goes Off On The Bucs, Reveals ‘Official Reason’ AB Got Cut

The Antonio Brown drama continued over the weekend.

Brown’s attorney hopped on Twitter to go off on the Bucs after they released him during a game earlier this month.

“The Bucs picked an arbitrary appointment time outside of normal business hours early Thursday morning,” Brown’s attorney tweeted. “They also fumbled around with a Wednesday afternoon appt at the last minute. (Bucs’ new interest in AB’s health was a surprise. Wasn’t AB ‘not a Buc’ on Sunday night?)”

We were in the midst of scheduling an appointment with the Bucs’ chosen surgeon when we learned, via Twitter, that they terminated AB on Thursday for not seeing that very same surgeon. On Wednesday night, the Bucs had concocted their bogus scheme to engineer a way to cut AB. 1/8

He continued:

“The Bucs did this because they know that Coach Arians’ on-the-field termination of AB was degrading, inhumane, abusive, and unlawful. So they tried covering it up using their latest dirty trick: ‘Surprise attack’ medical care that they [never] reasonably planned for AB to receive. This was pure gamesmanship to create a pretextual termination. All Antonio did was ask to be seen at a reasonable hour by a doctor with current medical records. When AB spoke up about his health this week, he was fired. On the field, then on Twitter.”

We spoke directly to the doctor and asked if he had reviewed the most recent MRI & CT scans and whether we could reschedule to a reasonable hour. When the Doc said he had not yet seen the images and was graciously willing to see us at a normal time, we texted to reschedule. 3/8

Most people schedule doctor’s appointments for healing. In our view, it’s unusually perverse for the Bucs to use medical care as a setup to fire someone.

Doctors are heroes, not pawns. 5/8

TL;DR version: AB was fired for not attending a doctor’s appointment that was in the process of being rescheduled to a normal time and after the doctor reviewed the relevant medical records. The rescheduling was over the phone and, of course, through written communications.

Brown says he could not play due to an injury but his coach said he was not aware of such an injury.

Brown then leaked text messages to prove his coach did know.

Antonio Brown always keeps things interesting…
