Despite being released by the New England Patriots on Friday, it seems we’re from done hearing about Antonio Brown.
Brown was particularly active on social media Sunday morning, taking a shot at Robert Kraft in a rant on Twitter and also seemed to endorse certain Patriots fans going after Sports Illustrated writer Robert Klemko.
The ongoing matter regarding the Patriots has to do with Brown’s contract. The Patriots obviously plan to void the wide receiver’s guaranteed money ($10 million), but Brown is filing a grievance against New England, per ESPN’s Chris Mortensen.
Antonio Brown is filing a grievance to get his $10 million guaranteed from @Patriots. The @NFLPA will represent him but personal misconduct that can void guarantees is in every contract across all professional sports. Question is: Can he win the grievance?

In light of Brown’s most recent outburst, Kraft reportedly will refuse to pay the troubled receiver, regardless of the result of the grievance.
