Antonio Brown has played his final game with the Tampa Bay Bucs. Head coach Bruce Arians made the announcement during his post-game presser, telling reporters that the embattled wide receiver is “no longer a Buc,” after he stunned the crowd at MetLife Stadium during Sunday’s game win over the New York Jets.
Brown was seen undressing on the field before storming off to the locker room during the third quarter of the game. The Bucs were trailing the Jets at the time.
More information has since been revealed on Antonio Brown did after he left the field.
Security said Brown ran out of stadium shirtless and into a police car. He was looking to be escorted away from the stadium and to the airport, where he would catch his own flight out of town and away from the Buccaneers.
It was one of the many wild things Brown had done today, after pretty much retiring mid-game, throwing his clothes into the stands, and waving goodbye to the MetLife crowd on his way out.
Brown has 42 catches for 545 yards and four touchdowns this season. He could’ve earned up to $1 million in contract incentives if just stuck around and got himself eight more receptions, 55 more yards and one more touchdown.

Brown, who played just six games this season, returned in Week 17 after overcoming an ankle injury that had him listed as questionable entering the day.
Arians has been one of Brown’s biggest defenders this season. After serving a three-game suspension for using a fake vaccine card, Brown returned under heavy criticism. Brown recently ripped the media following last week’s game against the Carolina Panthers over questions about the vaccine incident.
“I don’t want to talk about that,” Brown told reporters. “You guys are all drama. It’s all about football. We’re going to talk about Carolina or I don’t want to talk to you.”
