Sad news: The head coach of Tampa Buccanners shook tears as two of his best player’s has made a final decision to terminate their contract
Tampa, Florida (AP) The mercurial wide receiver’s contract was officially terminated by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which also refuted Brown’s assertion that he was fired mid-game for not playing despite an ankle injury.
In the first half of last Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, Brown felt that he was not being targeted enough, and according to coach Bruce Arians, things got to a boiling point in the third quarter.
He never once asked the trainer or the doctor about his ankle during that game. That is standard procedure. Regarding the specifics of Brown’s strange departure, Arians remarked, “I was never informed of it.”

At halftime, he was furious about who was being singled out. We managed to defuse that. That was handled by the players,” the coach continued. On the sidelines, it all began over again. We made contact with the personnel group he had been a part of the entire time. He declined to play the game.

Arians claimed that he went to Brown to find out “what’s going on” as soon as he learned about the circumstances.
The instructor stated, “I ain’t playing. I ain’t getting the ball.” was Brown’s response.
I then said, “You’re done. Leave this place now. That concludes the matter. Arians stated, “We are working on Carolina, our opponent this week.” That brings the story to a close. I hope it ends today.
One day after the receiver broke his silence, the Bucs announced that Brown’s contract had been terminated. In a statement released by his attorney, Brown claimed that Arians had cut him on the spot because Brown refused to return to the game due to his injuries.
“You are not allowed to make a player play. That is their option. Their body is it, Arians remarked. “He made the decision to participate.”
Brown said there was a cover-up.

At MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the wide receiver, who started his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, waved to fans, threw some equipment into the stands, and performed some jumping jacks before making his way to the locker room.
“Although Antonio’s ankle was treated and noted on the injury report, he was given the all-clear to play by our medical staff in the week before last Sunday’s game, and he never told our medical staff during the game that he was unable to play, according to a statement from the Bucs.
