Tom Brady Shows Support For Antonio Brown With Instagram Comment

Antonio Brown is no longer a Patriot, but Tom Brady supports him in every aspect.

Brown has become a popular name on social networks. Brown’s latest Instagram post got the attention of the GOAT. Brady liked it.

It was a photo of Brown and a youth football team.

“Awesome!” Brady wrote.

The Patriots released Brown and the league confirmed it in a statement.

“Antonio Brown was released today by the New England Patriots and is currently an unrestricted free agent. Our office is presently investigating multiple allegations, some of which are the subject of pending litigation. We have as yet made no findings regarding these issues. The investigation is ongoing and will be pursued vigorously and expeditiously. As long as Mr. Brown is a free agent, placement on the Commissioner’s exempt list is not appropriate. If he is signed by a club, such placement may become appropriate at any time depending on the status of the investigation. Upon the conclusion of the investigation, he may also be subject to discipline if the investigation finds that he has violated the law or league policies.”

Executives have discussed Brown’s situation.

“That’s [commissioner Roger] Goodell saying, ‘Don’t sign Antonio Brown. And if you do, we’re going to put him on the [exempt] list anyway,’” the executive said. “… I don’t know that anyone is really interested in him at this point with all this stuff going on, but that [statement] has got to make you think twice when you might be signing him and taking the heat for it and then he’s not even available to play for you. Why go through that?”

What will happen next? “For now, the status of the league’s investigation appears to have left Brown in a state of limbo with any teams that have interest in signing him,” Charles Robinson wrote. “If teams require Brown to be free from investigation to consider signing him, the league’s investigation must come to a conclusion. However, the league’s investigation apparently won’t conclude without Brown cooperating — and Brown can’t be forced to cooperate without signing with another NFL team.”

Well, it’s a tough situation for Brown.
