Antonio Brown Allegedly Threatened His Arena League Players With A Gun

by

Antonio Brown is someone who is seemingly always wrapped up in some sort of controversy. Over the past year, Brown was in the news due to his ownership of the Albany Empire in the National Arena League. Overall, this was supposed to be a cool endeavor for Brown. His father played for the team back in the day, and many saw it as a potential outlet for AB to fix his image. However, that turned out to be the furthest thing from the truth. Instead, his tenure as owner devolved into a mess.

The team was kicked out of the league as Brown failed to pay players. Moreover, players exited the team in a mass exodus, which led to all sorts of reports on how poorly he was running the team. Now, in a new report from ESPN, Brown’s ownership is being put under more scrutiny. As you are about to read, AB was allegedly threatening his players with guns. The instance in question took place because players on the team were upset about a deleted social media post. The post was about former player Mo Ruffins, who had passed away. When players questioned the deletion of the team’s tribute to Ruffins, Brown almost got violent.

New Antonio Brown Accusations

“AB looked at Ryan [Larkin] and was like, ‘Hey, man, you still got the AR in the car? Go get it,’” wide receiver Darius Prince told ESPN. “Then I was like, I’m not going to allow this dude to walk out of here after you just threatened us… After he said that, things did calm down, and we had a conversation. But the fact is that he threatened us by telling his assistant to grab his AR.”

This is truly unacceptable behavior that speaks to a pattern we have seen play out over the last four years. Overall, it is clear that AB needs help. Whether or not he gets that help, remains to be seen. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments below.

If you have been following the life and times of Antonio Brown, you know that he is currently the owner of a National Arena League team. His father played for the Albany Empire back in the day, and to make him proud, he purchased the team. According to TMZ, he owns about 95 percent of the franchise. However, it turns out that this has been a disaster of sorts. Overall, we know this due to the testimony of former head coach Damon Ware. Moreover, former quarterback Sam Castronova is also speaking out.

As the story goes, things with Antonio Brown have been horrible. Previously, we reported on how he got into a heated altercation at an Albany Empire game. However, this has been the least of the team’s worries. As Ware explains, the team is supposed to get paid a week after each game. Although, following two weeks of action, not a single player was paid. Subsequently, there were calls from within to protest future games. Eventually, Brown promised everyone payment, and they played a third match.

The aforementioned third game went down on Sunday, and players still had yet to be paid. Consequently, a bunch of players decided to team up and make their case to team officials. Unfortunately, things got worse as according to Castronova and Ware, players and coaches were locked out of their hotel rooms. Their keycards no longer worked, and it was nearly impossible for them to fetch their belongings. Simply put, Antonio Brown put them on the street.

Now, the team is missing some of its most essential players. Moreover, the rest of the players have yet to be paid sufficiently. Needless to say, this entire situation is a mess, and Antonio Brown is at the center of it. As it stands, AB has yet to comment on the situation. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for updates from around the sports world.

Antonio Brown is staying at the top of the headlines this week. Earlier this week, Brown discussed his final appearance in the NFL. A game that saw the former Pro Bowler take off his pads and leave the sidelines early. Brown claimed that there were many variables that went into his decision to quit in the middle of the game. However, over the weekend, it seems Brown found himself in another sticky situation. According to TMZ, Brown was seen in a heated debate with a security guard during a National Arena League game.

The incident began when Brown made his way onto the field during the Albany Empire’s opening game. Brown was asked to leave the field by security. However, the former Steelers receiver didn’t seem to like the decision made by security. In video clips, Brown is seen becoming aggravated with security asking him to leave the field. But according to some at the event, Brown was a great ambassador for the game. Including taking photos and signing autographs for the fans. Check out a clip from the incident below.
