I picked him up off of waivers in my dynasty keeper hoping this would happen.

I think they are giving him $9 million. Even though they cut him and it's against their cap.


Antonio Brown had a $15 million contract with the Patriots — how much do they have to pay him?

His contract included a $9 million signing bonus and a $1 million salary. Since Brown only played with the team for one game, he was paid $158,333. According to the Boston Globe, he was set to receive the first installment of his signing bonus — $5 million — three days after the team released him.

Brown has filed a grievance against the team to collect the full $10 million. He will be represented by his union, the NFL Players Association.


Think the Pats have only paid the $158,333 pending the grievance outcome.

Which they are going to lose. Almost certainly. According to that legal beagle Michael McCann at CNNSI.

Pretty sure he's still in the cap as well. Or they'd be swinging for the fence with somebody else.

Can't say myself, but I've read that the Pats have a legit out of getting out of paying also. Pats aren't stupid so if they were on the hook any ways I don't see them cutting Brown when they did.

There are at least 20 teams, including almost every potential playoff squad, seriously interested in signing wide receiver Antonio Brown.

That's according to three general managers who were asked which teams they believed might sign the former Steeler, Raider and Patriot, who is in football stasis as the NFL investigates sexual assault allegations. The only potential playoff team the executives believed would not sign Brown was New England, which dumped him earlier this season.

Teams largely believe Brown is still a transformational talent on the field. Indeed, Brown's 841 career receptions are the second-most of any receiver, behind Larry Fitzgerald's 844, since he entered the NFL in 2010.


Antonio Brown's Future Is in Limbo, but Interest from NFL Teams in Him Is Not
Name the twenty teams.

So per THREE GMs 20 teams are interested, yet AB keeps up his Twitter rants due to lack of team interest.

Not buying it.
