Antonio Brown has a reputation for constantly poking fun at his teammates. His jokes actually range from lighthearted jabs to ones that are guaranteed to cause a stir. However, Brown recently made news for a different reason when he was seen working out on the field with NFL quarterback Geno Smith.
After spending the previous two seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, Geno Smith posted glimpses of his offseason workouts on Instagram. In those videos, he can be seen tossing passes to Antonio Brown and Zay Flowers. NFL players frequently work out in private during the offseason, but when media outlets noticed Brown with Smith, it sparked a post by Dov Kleiman.

Imagine Smith and Antonio Brown going onto the court, eager to show off their skills. Ever since Antonio Brown’s last game with the New York Jets in 2021, he has avoided the sport, thus the sight alone set off a frenzy of rumors. For admirers, it therefore came down to this: Is this the start of a comeback story?
Imagine if AB never got CTE….

Some even questioned Geno Smith’s decision to practice with Antonio Brown rather than his teammates in the meantime.
He should be cut

After departing the Buccaneers in 2021, Brown—a former wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers—has not been in the spotlight in the NFL.
