Antonio Brown has a lot of time on his hands these days and he’s watching everybody that has something negative to say about him.
On several occasions this season, Stephen A. Smith advocated for a team to sign Antonio Brown, a seven-time Pro Bowl selection who’s currently a free agent as the NFL continues its investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct.
But he changed his tune earlier this week after watching Brown go on a tirade towards the mother of his kids as well as responding police officers outside his home on Instagram Live.
“I was wrong. I wouldn’t bring him on my NFL team. He’s got problems,” Smith said on Tuesday’s episode of “First Take” on ESPN. “And I want to let everybody know, you do understand, if you listened to that video — not just watched it — the police officers showed incredible restraint. He was calling them the ‘B’ word. He was calling them the ‘N’ word. He was yelling at them. They turned their backs. They walked away. All they did was take the young lady and the kids into the cop car, and they drove them off. They did not respond to him. They did not antagonize him.
They did nothing. He was screaming at them and calling them all kinds of names. “I want everyone out there to understand that the police officers at any given moment could have turned around and arrested him. You don’t get to talk to police officers like that. You don’t get to berate them and think that that’s not a crime. You can actually get arrested for that. They could have arrested him. They did no such thing. They all walked away, they got into their cop cars and they drove off. And he was screaming all kinds of obscenities at them. He seemed completely out of control.”
Brown eventually got around to seeing those comments, so he took to Twitter on Thursday and challenged the ESPN personality to come to his Florida home so they can speak.

Don’t expect Smith to take Brown up on his offer anytime soon. We’ve all seen how he acts with a camera on him. I’m pretty sure he’s just as worst behind closed doors.
