Former Patriots WR Called Most Hated Man In New England

Who is the most hated player in Boston? Can we say that someone from the New England Patriots WR unit is the most hated player? Some would say it’s Tom Brady. A lot of people got angry at Brady for leaving the Patriots after two decades. Well, you are wrong… It’s not Tom Brady. It’s someone who plays with Brady in Tampa Bay.

Bet Online posted a graphic suggesting that Antonio Brown is the most-hated player in New England. They went through a lot of tweets related to NFL players.

Brown was a Patriot for two weeks but this was more than enough to make people angry. The talented wide receiver had a lot of issues at the time and he was even accused of sexual assault. The Patriots decided to part ways with him despite his great performance on the field. Let’s not forget that Brown is one of the best wide receivers in league history. The Buccaneers didn’t waste any time and got the talented veteran.
