Just when you thought it was safe…
Antonio Brown has completely upended the Oakland Raiders and the drama has unfolded in the most unprecedented way ever. Yesterday it was reported that “AB” had apologized to his teammates and staff and it appeared that he would suit up to play on Monday night.
Then, inexplicably, Brown posted a video with audio from a private conversation he had with head coach Jon Gruden about his blow-up with general manager Mike Mayock.
The Raiders didn’t take kindly to the video and, well…
I just got an email from Antonio Brown. He tells me the team “took away my guarantees.” He added there’s “no way I play after they took that and made my contract week to week.” So at this moment, once again, don’t expect AB to play on Monday Night Football.

By fining Antonio Brown $215,073.53 last night for conduct detrimental to the team on Sept. 4, the Raiders voided the $29.125 million worth of guaranteed money in his deal, per league sources.
This could help explain why Brown is now asking the Raiders for his release.

In addition to fining Antonio Brown $215,073.53 for conduct detrimental to the team that voided $29.125 million worth of guaranteed money in his contract, the Raiders sent Brown a letter that he no longer will be entitled to termination pay if they release him, per sources.

This is an absolute s#!t show and all parties involved have contributed to the scorched earth that they now walk.
