The All-Pro receiver's departure from the Steelers has caused controversy within the NFL. In March Antonio Brown was traded to the Raiders making him the highest paid player at his position. He signed for three years and $50 million in exchange for a third and fifth-round pick.
The cause for his departure is rumored to be for his conflict with Ben Roethlisberger at the end of the 2018 season. Brown then took to social media demanding a trade. After his move to Oakland his former teammate Juju Smith-Schuster went to Twitter calling out Brown. They two receivers exchanged words online.
Antonio Brown has been the most efficient receiver in the league since he was drafted. All six years he has played he has grabbed over 100 receptions. Jon Gruden hopes to see this consistency reach new heights as he has been rebuilding this Raiders squad.
