Antonio Brown said in an Instagram Live appearance that former teammate James Harrison gave him CTE. It was a shocking revelation since both of them were teammates with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Brown said Harrison gave him CTE and caused his “aggressive behavior.”
“I wanted to tell you guys that I think James Harrison gave me CTE. James Harrison had an illegal helmet for over 20 years in the NFL, and he hit me one time. And, ever since he hit me, I’ve been super aggressive. So blame James Harrison for my CTE,” Brown said.
In response to the uproar, Harrison tweeted the infamous video of Idris Elba choking on a chicken wing, saying he had received 150 text messages.
Brown would later fire back by posting a picture of Harrison bending him over in a gym, clearly trying to help him out with a workout. However, AB said in the caption, “James, WTF you got me doin????,” as if is insinuating something else is going on.

At this point, it is impossible to know when Brown is joking and when he isn’t.
Harrison has been retired from the league, and Brown has no choice but to be retired ue to hs behavior on and off the field. In the last game he played, he shed his jersey and pads and stormed off the sideline at MetLife Stadium and was almost immediately released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Brown remains a free agent. Harrison retired after the 2017 season.
