Antonio Brown Career

Antonio Tavaris Brown Sr. was born on July 10, 1988 in Miami, Florida. He was drafted #195 by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2010 NFL Draft and has also played his entire career for the Steelers. 

During Brown’s NFL career, he won an AFC Championship in 2010 and is a four time Pro Bowl selection and two time First-team All-Pro. He was named the AFC Offensive Co-Player of the Year and was the NFL Receiving Yards Leader in 2014. 

Brown was the NFL Receptions Leader in 2014 and 2015 and the AFC Receiving Touchdowns Leader in 2014. He is the first NFL player to have 1,000 yards returning and receiving in a season as well as the first NFL player to have at least five catches and 50 receiving yards in 35 consecutive games. 

He is the first NFL player with back to back seasons with at least 125 receptions. Brown is also one of two players with Calvin Johnson to have at least 5,000 receiving yards in a three year period.

Antonio Brown Net Worth and Salary

Antonio Brown Net Worth as of today is $25 Million. Antonio Brown Net Worth is acquired from his career as a professional football player. 

He has currently had $71 million worth of NFL contracts, although that number includes some money that he did not end up earning.

Antonio signed a five year deal with the Steelers in 2012 for $42.5 million. He signed a four-year $68 million deal in 2017 with the Steelers that paid him $17 million per year on average. 

However, that was enough to make Brown the highest-paid wide receiver in the history of the NFL until one year later when Odell Beckham Jr. signed a deal that paid him $19 million starting in 2018. 

Brown had several verbal altercations with management of his new team, the Oakland Raiders in August and September 2019 . The Raiders announced on September 7 that they were cutting Brown and were planning to rescind his $30 million signing bonus.

That same day, Brown announced that he had signed a 1-year $15 million deal with the Patriots, none of which was guaranteed. Hence if he got hurt after one play, he would have ended up making an enormous mistake. 

Two weeks after basically flushing a guaranteed $30 million down the toilet on September 20, 2019, Brown was released from the Patriots amid an ongoing sexual assault controversy. 

However, the first $5 million installment in his $9 million Patriots signing bonus is due Sept 23. Then on January 15, the second installment of $4 million would be due. Brown was supposed to earn a $1 million base salary and $500,000 game roster bonuses, both of which he will almost certainly forfeit. 

So as for the signing bonuses, his contract stated the bonus can be rescinded if Brown takes any action that materially undermines the public’s respect for, or is materially critical of, the Club’s ownership and coaches. 

Though we are still not sure if his release on sexual assault charges will render the $9 million null and void. If Brown does not receive the $9 million signing bonus, he will have gone from $30 million guaranteed to $9 million guaranteed to just $158,333 in total earnings for the 2019 season.

Antonio Brown is an American professional football player and a wide receiver and punt returner who played at Miami Norland High School.
