Antonio Brown is ready for a encore in fantasy football
Bryant has also focused on his overall game by studying with Brown and improving his footwork by “running routes in the sand, the beach, the sand pit, wherever”.
Given those numbers, it’s no surprise that Brown was back out there for the season opener. “To me, the sky is the limit for them”, Ben said of Bryant and Markus Wheaton. Stuff like that doesn’t pop up out of nowhere, and there’s no doubt Brown has thoroughly outperformed the million contract extension he signed with Pittsburgh just prior to the 2012 season.
Now he’s commanding the attention of everyone else off of it. Maybe he is secretly unhappy with his current deal and wants compensation worthy of his status as the league’s most productive receiver over the past two seasons.
As far as how it rides, Brown said it feels smooth like a boat. While his contract looks like one of the league’s best bargains as he reaches his prime, Brown isn’t in the mood to mar what he hopes will be a special year. “It all the time ends badly”, Brown stated Saturday.
“They just want to see me progress, take more control of the offense, kind of make it my own”, Jones said. “Rolls Royce thought it would be good to send me up in something great to Latrobe”.
Specifically, a 0,000 black and gold-themed Rolls-Royce, like the one he reported to camp in over the weekend. “I wish we could live in the past but we’ve got to go out and prove it again this year or (people) are going to talk bad about us”.
Brown, who has 3,197 receiving yards in the last two seasons, missed one off-season workout in April, resulting in speculation that he was pushing for a new deal, but later revealed that he had been attending the birth of his child. It’s much better to fly under the radar and then end up shocking everyone than to have the weight of expectations hanging over your head before you even get going.
A lot has changed for Brown since he showed up to his first training camp six years ago in a Jeep Wrangler but he said he hasn’t let his success change who he is as a person.
