Antonio Brown

AB is coming back. That or we're trading for Odell lol

Watch.

Now that the civil suit has been dropped........... what's left? Nothing? The second story was just a rehashed old story and there's no civil or criminal suit attached to it.

Antonio Brown accuser drops federal suit, will refile in Fla. court

What can NFL put him on the Exempt List for now? There's no suit, civil or legal. Just some texts?

NFL needs to announce that the investigation has been concluded and they won't be taking any action.

TBH, I do want him running routes out there tomorrow night...we would be able to put the game away in the 2nd quarter...

Is it really that important to you that we beat them 49-0 instead of 42-0?

It also depends on the language of the CBA because the CBA overrules any clause in a contract that doesn't conform to the CBA.
We actually have a full grasp on the details of the CBA.

I don't see how he gets "some" unless each side agrees to a compromise. I don't see how an arbitrator would say he is only entitled to "some".

You win. I'm wrong.
Give me links

There have been various news reports that upon examination of his contract language, consensus legal opinion points to him getting fully paid by the Patriots.

The Pats were only cutting him on the eve of the $5m payment since they hoped to not have to pay the contract but apparently they do.

links?

Despite respecting his ownership and historic lack of meddling in football issues, I've had enough of Robert Kraft and wish ownership would transition to Jonathan sooner than later. If BB could suffer the off-field distractions and it didn't affect the team...

Also, the die down in AB reporting post-release tells you everything about the intention.

Yeah I had the same thought. Why don't I hear anything about the guy since his release?

It’s happening.

As stated, I haven't seen any links.
Some would be welcomed

I've only seen speculation from the "Reports"

I think Kraft saw the first half of the skins game and decided he had to do something. I think AB is coming back. It seemed impossible a week ago but I think he will be ok.

3rd For OJ Howard. Van Noy 2.0. Very talented player being misused in current system.

Please prepare yourself if and when it happens.

OMG. How did I allow myself to get into another mindless AB thread?
I promised I wouldn't.

I am a dummy, I admit it.

Enjoy your fantasies.
Bye.

From four hours ago. Let BB bring him back, Tugboat Bob. You know Bill can handle him.

Links to what? The CBA? The CBA is out there and easily found but, perhaps more valuable, is the article by that S.I. lawyer guy who quotes the relevant passages of the CBA relating to forfeiture of a signing bonus.

As I said before I believe both the Pats and AB have a solid case. If I had to bet I’d go with AB but I certainly wouldn’t bet anything valuable.

Logically I don’t have to provide a link to support a point you already conceded. That aside, if you tell me precisely *what* you want a link to, I’ll be happy to oblige.

Brown: "Mr. Kraft, I would like to speak with you about a possible return."
Kraft: "Are you &%#@!!!! me???"
Brown: "Yeah, well, %#)#&%!!!!!"
Kraft: "No -- &%^#@&%!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Brown: "Yeah, but *&%#@ Orchids and ^%*& massage, you $#@)^@!!!!!"
Kraft: "You can &^*%$#)@ my %#*&%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
BB: "Tom, we tried but Bob %)#@& the &)%#@ money."
Brady: "F*ck!"

This may be Erica Leigh’s father-in-law but I’m going to pretend that it’s totally legit.

He's twitter verified but is he legit?

Why would you expect to hear anything?

1) he was released. That means he’s not playing, practicing, or in mandatory press conferences. There’s nothing to keep him in the media.
2) Unless he’s doing more bad stuff (which I assume you hope he’s not doing), then all the stuff has come out. There is literally no new news. So why waste any minutes or column inches on him?

There’s 2 sources I trust for stuff like this and this guy ain’t one of ‘em.

(the 2 I trust are Schefter primarily and a little bit with Rapoport)
