Yep, but regardless of whether those movements would irritate said injury, if the ankle was his point of contention all along, he wouldn't have included the exit dance because it's optically contradictory. But it wasn't, because the issue all along was that baby needed more favoritism. His halftime tantrum in the locker room over wanting more targets isn't compatible with being forced to play.

Antonio Brown has lied, manipulated and blamed other people for his own actions in the last years (Big Ben, Tomlin, Raiders, the Helmet, Belichick, his trainer, Arians and a lot we do not know. This is another chapter of his own tragedy and what is the real sad side of the story is that Antonio, without the NFL, will get lost in a spiral of self-destruction that he started years ago, if he does not get help fast. I hope Antonio gets the much needed assistance to stop this madness.

[@cdsersd2d]

@@johnnieblack1061 - But that's not what Arians was saying. Yes, Arians knew about the prior injury a week before. What Arians was saying that he and AB did not talk during the game about AB being too injured to continue. So yes, Arians was not aware of any NEW injury. Arians assumed that AB was able to play.

[@ISzach]

And that’s just football. Not to mention he almost killed a toddler throwing furniture, assault and rape allegations which he settled, assaulting a moving truck driver with a rock after not settling his debt amongst other debts he did not settle… YET people stand with Ab. Give me a break.

It's always fun to watch the mannerisms during these rants. Picking up the glasses and setting them right back down, aimlessly shuffling papers...lol

[@keithjacobson1640]

So his ankle was so bad... he then ran off the field?? I didn't see any limp!

[@u.n.animations522]

LOL...bro running straight is DIFFERENT than running a pass play where you have to push off and make cuts at high speed.

[@33moneyball]

AB deserves nothing. Even if he’s telling the truth nobody should believe him.

[@jdrummerdd]

i mean thats not how the world works lmffao. if he's telling the truth then the bucs should pay, but im not one to tend to believe AB lol.

[@atlas2164]

If AB is telling the truth, then that has some merit. The problem is, he has a track record of being a lying POS narcissist.

[@700Ezalb]

He's already being proven to be a liar in this instance. He's lied by omission by not admitting he wanted more targets during the game, and he lied when he said Arians made a throat slash gesture. I'm sure there's more he's lied about about, but it'll likely come out in due time.

Rich i couldn't agree more... Well done!!!!!!! Take a breath.... Excellent analysis!

[@jamesedgar3442]

You can boil it all down to his exit from the field. If his ankle was as tore up as he says it is, there's no way he could have left the field in the manner that he did. That alone invalidates his entire story.

[@i.m.6758]

It don’t matter how good he is if something’s always happening to make him unavailable.

[@eduardocastillo6527]

Thank you Rich! I appreciate your empassioned defense of BA. AB has played his way out of everywhere he's been. Team refuses to guarantee his incentives...all of a sudden he is not practicing.

[@tumpaltobing6798]

AB needs help but make sure he pays upfront before you help him😂

[@brutalhonesty5138]

AB is a few fries short of a happy meal!

[@thotsaboutGod]

Nothing wrong with Brady and Arians being hopeful AB would fly right. People can and do learn from past mistakes. Unfortunately AB doesn't appear to be one of those who did. Re: Arians lying... people hear what they want to. Arians saying he didn't know AB was injured may have meant injured enough to not be able to play. Arians clearly knew AB had been injured and likely wasn't 100% but AB suited up. That was his call but also a signal he was all in. I don't buy the reinjured claim by AB because the whole team knew he was upset for not getting targeted more. Maybe in AB's mind it was worth playing hurt (which players choose to do all the time btw) as long as he got more targets... so he felt it no longer was since he wasn't. But no excuse regardless. You suit up, you play (unless you were legitimately reinjured) regardless of how much or little the team uses you. It's called being a pro vs being a child.

[@ozman1966]

Ankle looked 100% fine when AB stormed off the field, so I guess BA was correct, AB's ankle is just fine after all, smh

[@u.n.animations522]

You see what his ankle looked like?

[@marcspecial]

Arians admitted in his press conference that he told AB “Get the F out of here, you’re done”. From the man’s own mouth. But it’s AB who’s disrespectful

[@Jmac19994]

Great take, Rich. It’s always Everyone else’s fault. No accountability whatsoever.
