The #Patriots have released WR Antonio Brown, as he indicated on Twitter. They have moved on.

[#27TheDominator]

Didn't he get a $9M signing bonus?

the line hasn't moved 

Yeah, but something else did. 

[jetspenguin]

Hahahahahhaha I said not before and I'll say it again....

C.T.E.

The dude needs help...fug football, he will be the first ex-player to show up in a locker room with an AR-15.

Does anyone here doubt that he might do it?

“STUNNING & BRAVE move by the Patriots” - media
We’ll just forget that they likely colluded in order to sign him and definitely didn’t do their due diligence. Love the egg on their faces. Hope they have to eat that $9 million 

He was on the roster for the first game so its likely they will have to eat it.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer psychotic a**hole.

SIGN THIS BEAST!

Just kidding.  He's great but not worth the aggravation.  

[SOJ]

GOOD!!!!! HE IS A pos

[pdxgreen]

Well it looks like the AB media extravaganza has...

 

[Green DNA]

LOL  I hope he saved the money he earned because he is toxic, no team will go near him.   

[mrcoops]

Hmmm....we do have a major need at WR.

But, no.

Hey Pats, thanks for Demaryius Thomas anyway ?

Yeah that was a great trade.  DT probably won't have another catch all season.

[ZachEY]

Brought him in to defeat the Dolphins and then he was no longer needed.  BB playing 3D chess.

[BroadwayRay]

His career isn't over, that's for sure. Yes, Goodell will certainly put him on the ineligible list now, and we may not see him again this season. But he'll do a few months of "therapy" and "anger management" to give some team the cover they need to eventually sign him.

[MaxAF]

He didn’t want to play football since the antics with the Steelers last year. Just cruising around the NFL collecting money. Next sucker up? Who’s it gonna be.

[Beerfish]

As another poster early stated the Pats will come out of this smelling like a rose by the national media.

They took a chance and then did the right thing when it didn't work out (after using the guy to win a game)

Most other teams would get killed over this and heaven help us if the Jets had done it.

Trade him back for a 5th?

Just heard on Michael Kay, if the league put him on the exempt list they’d have to pay him. And they owed him $5 mill on Monday. 

Pats got ahead of it but cutting him now. 

They made a money decision.

Dolphins won't win a game this season. First team since the Lions. 0-16.

From what i'm reading, they will likely get most of it back (minus the salary for the one game he played) depending on details of the contract, however it stays on the books this season, limiting FA moves they can do and they'll only get it back next year as a credit.

[Green Truth]

One Down,  only Gordon and Edelman to go.  

[Losmeister]

so...   with the metoo movement and all...  i have come to ponder the use of the word "assault" ...   

i mean, if he jizzed on some womans back its obviously sick and wierd and creepy and wrong...  i dunno..  i consider assualt more violent...

but his acts are of a aggravated sexual sort...   he certainly deserves to get a royal beatdown by the men in these womens families...

thatd be a nice headline to read, actually...

I don’t know man, I guess I’m okay living in an era where we can call uninvited bukkake “sexual assault.”

The Jets were allegedly interested when he was released by the Raiders - and when the Steelers were trading him. I have to imagine he has too much stink on him at this point for Douglas to try him but I wouldn't be completely shocked.

Care to tell us again how the media made this all up?

Wow. My guess is because he got caught lying about it to the team.

A team like the pats can make moves like this and not be affected at all if it doesnt work out.  They have already forgot about antonio brown.
