The petty has apparently made it over to the NFL from the NBA. Fresh off the New England Patriots dropping Super Bowl LII to the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday night, one Pro Bowl receiver has some jokes.
Antonio Brown of the Pittsburgh Steelers took to Instagram to shade both former teammate James Harrison as well as Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.
And it was all sorts of glorious.
Now, there’s a lot to look at here. We already know certain members of the Steelers are upset about Harrison signing with New England after Pittsburgh released him late in the season. We also know the issue between Tom Brady’s trainer and the Patriots’ organization.
To take this troll job to an entirely new level, Brown is shading Brady for his important dropped pass in the first half of Sunday’s 41-33 loss to Philadelphia. He’s also pointing to the finger injury Brady suffered as one of the reasons he dropped said pass.
That’s just all sorts of brilliant.
