Bruce Arians is not playing around with Antonio Brown.
The Tampa Bay Bucs head coach famously destroyed any notion of his team bringing in Antonio Brown when he told the “Tiki & Tierney” show in March that Brown signing with Tampa Bay was “not gonna happen” because “it’s not a fit in our locker room.”
Arians, who coached Brown as the offensive coordinator for the Steelers, also told ESPN’s Adam Schefter in 2019 that with Brown there was “too much miscommunication, too much … diva.”
Brown is now on the team, but Arians made one thing clear with him:
In the only game Brown has played since 2018, he caught four of eight targets from Brady for 56 yards and a touchdown in a Patriots win over the Dolphins last September.
