The Baltimore Ravens and Seattle Seahawks are reportedly interested in signing Antonio Brown.
According to Michael Silver, both teams have had “internal discussions” about signing the disgraced former Steelers star. The move comes after Brown got off with no prison time in his felony case down in Florida after allegedly attacking a moving truck driver.

I honestly don’t know why any team would want anything to do with Antonio Brown. Sure, he’s been relatively under the radar the past couple months and he more or less got off with a slap on the wrist in his criminal case.
Yet, he’s still a gigantic distraction. Do we all remember what last season was like with Brown? From the moment he got dumped from the Steelers, it was utter chaos with the Raiders and Patriots.

He is also still potentially facing a suspension from the league after allegations of sexual misconduct. There’s no guarantee you could even play if he was signed.
If I was an NFL general manager, I would touch Antonio Brown with a 10 foot pole. He might be talented, but his baggage is just way too much.

It’d be a gigantic mistake to put him in your locker room, and I really hope it’s not a mistake an NFL team makes.
