Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 6 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: Written eloquently by Drew Rosenhaus AB is still under investigation by the NFL as of mid-October https://www.masslive.com/patriots/2019/10/roger-goodell-offers-vague-update-on-status-of-antonio-brown-investigation.html Last I heard, the failure of AB to meet with the investigators is one factor holding the investigation open and he ought to be aware of that: https://sports.yahoo.com/source-antonio-brown-hasnt-interviewed-with-nfl-investigators-leaving-leagues-probe-open-indefinitely-063528904.html At present, AB is not on the commissioner's exempt list, but the League specifically said they would re-visit that if he signed with a team “Antonio Brown was released today by the New England Patriots and is currently an unrestricted free agent,” the NFL said in its statement. “Our office is presently investigating multiple allegations, some of which are the subject of pending litigation. We have as yet made no findings regarding these issues. The investigation is ongoing and will be pursued vigorously and expeditiously. “As long as Mr. Brown is a free agent, placement on the Commissioner’s exempt list is not appropriate. If he is signed by a club, such placement may become appropriate at any time depending on the status of the investigation. Upon the conclusion of the investigation, he may also be subject to discipline if the investigation finds that he has violated the law or league policies.” 1 minute ago, D. L. Hot-Flamethrower said: Can he return to NE? If so, I will vomit in my mouth. See above. Unclear. At this point with an open investigation (with which AB has not cooperated), I would think a club that signs him, sees him go straight onto the Exempt list. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 My biggest wish is that he gets upset with the Patriots* and publicly admits that they reached out to him or his agent to tell him they would sign him if he could get out of his contract with the Raiders. Even better would be "smoking gun" type evidence showing them providing advice on how to get them to cut him.

H2o Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Brady will s*ck Satan's d*** just to get one more ring if he has to. No surprise here. I don't think Kraft brings him back after his "different strokes for different folks" little quip. The guy is a douche, he's mentally unstable, and he's only sorry because he sees them $$$ getting flushed down the toilet on a daily basis. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottebillsfan2 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Didn't Brown file a grievance against the Pats and Raiders? I think he was going after the Pats for $9 million. Probably not the best idea to go after your employer then try to get hired back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy has looked pedestrian at times this season and has complained about his troubles 2 weeks straight IIRC He's top 7 in passing yards. But he looks mediocre not because he doesn't have AB, it's because he's getting beat on. The Eagles pounded him all night. Anyway, how does AB beat this sexual assault claim? And given ABs desperation, it's hardly a mysterious surprise he would start licking boots of Kraft--the team that had him before the charges arose.

TheFunPolice Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 His entire plan was to get off PIT and onto NE he'll do anything to get back on the Patriots Plus, NE cut him not for the allegations, but because of the group texts where he threatened the woman and her children How does the NFL "clear him" of that, anyway?

TheFunPolice Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Would you pay $10 million to cursh NE's spirit and hurt their chances of winning it all this year? Sign AB right now, let him sit, tweet, whatever. Nothing he could say or do would get him released. If the NFl suspends him or exempt lists him, fine. It's all about keeping him off of NE.

Should the New England Patriots elect to resign Antonio Brown, they would be given salary cap relief for both the original and reinstated contracts. They would also be granted a 4th round compensatory pick in the 2020 NFL draft. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Highly unlikely an NFL team wants him at this juncture of the season. Even the Patriots. He's Richie Incognito without the violence and I have no doubt the Raiders have snapped their backs in keeping Richie on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
