Someone will pick him up in training camp. Probably whatever team Russell Wilson goes to.

How come nobody picked him up for half a year until the Bucs? I think every NFL team will pass. He's not that good anymore and a total headcase.

Someone will probably take a chance midway through the year when injuries start piling up. Especially since it would be on another prove it deal. 1 or 2 mil?

AB has shown that he is still good but we haven't been able to see how good due to injuries and suspensions.

AB's career is done.

Too bad fans posting about him isn't done. That would be so cool.

 

[RicoG]

1. ab had no takers, his career was already done until tb12 jammed in the Bucs over arian's objections. He's done now.
2. Does ab have cte? Can one scan/check while alive or does one need to wait till death to confirm.
3. I was surprised that ab had fewer thousand-yard seasons than I thought. I think he also misses the hof. Basically a total headcase who also won't make the hof now. I think his WR ranks are in the 20's, not enough.

Yeah but his 1000 yard seasons are closer to 1500 and 2000, not like Evans.
AB has a 6 year stretch where he was top 3 every year. That is HOF worthy.

But AB has been doing everything in his power to not make the HOF. I think he has succeeded.

Looking forward to the Carolina game. Some major records are on the line.

Brady will pass 5000 yards for only the 2nd time. He should easily beat Winston for most passing yards for the Bucs. He also has a chance for a personal best.

And there is a very slim chance he can beat Mannings season passing yard record. Carolina's D is bad enough and the Bucs coaches would have to give their blessing. Need about 477 I think?

Another TD and that is his 2nd most.

A good game by Brady can cement his passing yard and Td lead and help his MVP cause.

A 100 yard game by Gronk will give him the lead for TE.

13 wins would be the most for the Bucs.

A few more yards and Evans gets his record 8th 1000 yard consecutive season.

 

[VectorPrime]

Really need the 49ers to win.

hopefully its the rams and they implode after Ramsey and AB get into a full on fist fight

Yes. Agree. I thought he was a lock based on how good he was with 7 elite years. Probably why Brady liked him. But he did the absolute worst things possible. I can't think of another guy who messed up his HOF chances more.

Still think so after he burned Brady during that podcast?

Brown came out today and said he is not 100 percent and can't run like he used to with his ankle. I think his season is over this year. We'll see if anyone takes a chance on him next year when he is 34 coming off of ankle surgery and his latest meltdown.

All righty then! Looks like AB will have to "take one for the team" and submit to vivisection. In the interests of science of course.

Hope he... lives a long time but some here will remark several years from now 'yup turns that guy Antonio Brown, who most people don't know, did have cte'.

His statement said he needed surgery. So his season is over unless of course he's lying about that and it was all about the money and targets which I think it's what happened.

Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea will be staying in Tampa Bay for years to come.

Vea, who had one year remaining on his rookie contract, has agreed to an extension. Vea’s agent told reporters that it’s a four-year, $73 million deal.

Bucs are signing Cyril Grayson to the 53 man roster from the practice squad and activating G Aaron Stinnie from injured reserve for Sunday’s game. Roster spots were available with release of Antonio Brown and with Shaquil Barrett on the COVID-19 list.

#Bucs elevated running back Kenjon Barner (No. 38) and tight end Darren Fells (No. 88) to the active roster.

 

[Deus Irae]

Fournette was working on the side with trainers this week. Seems promising to return next week. Arians optimistic about Barrett and JPP, seems more concerned about David.

 

[VectorPrime]

David just needs to be ready for the divisional round.
