Bruce Arians remains unsure about what to do with wide reciever Antonio Brown.
Brown’s three-game NFL suspension will end after the team’s Week 15 game against the Saints, but that does not mean he will be back on the team after he was suspended Dec. 2 for violating the league’s COVID-19 protocols. An investigation conducted by the NFL and the players association found that Brown was one of three Buccaneers players who misrepresented their vaccination status.
According to the Tampa Bay Times’ reporting, Brown obtained a fake vaccination card over the summer.
Speaking with reporters after practice Monday, the Tampa Buccaneers coach shared his thoughts on Brown’s possible return.
“I haven’t made a determination yet,” he said during media availability, per the Times’ Rick Stroud. “We’ll see how it goes.” Arians said the Bucs will further discuss the subject as an organization.
The Buccaneers coach also made an appearance during the Dan Patrick Show on Tuesday to discuss his impending decision.

“It could go either way right now, it really could,” Arians said, per the Times’ Joey Knight.
Brown last played in the Buccaneers victory over the Philadelphia Eagles back in October.
He had 29 catches for 418 yards and four touchdowns for the season before suffering an ankle sprain in Philadelphia.
