This is someone with serious problems. They were never addressed as long as he could catch passes. The blame must go to the NFL for allowing this to go on and on. He should never have been reinstated after numerous violations.

Nah, you got to blame the player, the team, the league, and society. Because we continue to look the other way if someone has a problem if they have talent. i hate it for him, but sometimes you just have to hit that bottom. Whether it be addiction or mental health. What you saw today was sad, no doubt about it. Just plain sad.

Truth. He has needed it for some time. Unfortunately, you can't help a man unless he realizes he needs help. That is Antonio Brown.
I never liked the guy but was happy he got another chance as he does seem to have a mental illness. But... You can only do so much. He is done and I won't be surprised to hear that he has done something terrible or hurt himself.

DeSantis would give him the Medal of Freedom if he could.
it would be quite easy to legally fake getting a shot with his type of money.
it's just the way he did it was moronic: faking the card without faking the records. Hell of a football player but his IQ is obviously very low.

As someone who has worked in the field of metal health. He needs supports and will constantly need support even when he acts out. It is not our place to judge but to rather support. I have helped veterans and homeless individuals who unfortunately have not been the same to try to feel some form of normalcy. PTSD is real and I'm glad Brady recognized it because a lot of people don't have that support.
