Antonio Brown attacks ex-Bucs teammate Tom Brady again as he brands the quarterback ‘selfish’ and hits back at claims the future Hall of Famer tried to save his career
Antonio Brown has attacked his ex-boyfriend and teammate Tom Brady again in a social media tirade.
The 35-year-old, who won a Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers alongside Brady, called the future Hall of Famer “selfish” after a fan claimed he helped save his career.
Brown responded to a tweet of a video of Brady showing how he built a winning mentality. In the clip, the retired quarterback claimed he played with some selfish players and the user who shared the clip suggested Brady was “dissing that clown Antonio Brown.”
The wide receiver hit back, indicating that the seven-time Super Bowl winner was the selfish one who just wanted to improve his stats.
“Ask anyone: Tom Brady, selfish man, wants statistics too. Do you think he enjoys manning Payton, or do you think he hasn't played longer than Brees pulled past his stats? Okay I'll let the crackers think it's me when I come off the bench help his team win,” he wrote, tweeting the clip.

However, several fans fired back with one claiming Brady was trying to save Brown's career.
“He tried to save your career several times and opened his house to you, he rocked with you when no one else was there and you made fun of him for it. This is how you end up with no one on your side in life,” they posted.
But Brown recently launched into another tirade, this time claiming he dominated the game throughout his career.
He replied: 'How you saved the career of a man who dominated the game his entire career! aB has taken itself out of the game. I don't buy that stuff! You sound like a squatter trying to make it seem like you've done so much for me all this time that you've used me for your goal once you've achieved it, just like a squatter says you're done.”
Brady had encouraged the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to acquire the embattled Brown in 2020 amid allegations of sexual assault and harassment, which he has since settled out of court. He even let Brown stay with him to prepare for the season.
A year earlier, Brady had pushed for the New England Patriots to sign Brown, but the team cut him after one game when the sexual misconduct allegation first surfaced.
Yet this isn't the first time Brown has attacked his former teammate, with the troubled star continually blaming Brady for the end of his career.
Brown hasn't played since his infamous shirtless mid-game exit against the New York Jets in January 2022.

Since then, he has regularly taken aim at the recently retired Brady on various platforms, including social media and podcasts, such as an episode of 'Million Dollaz Worth of Game' last April.
“If we get the ring in 2021, I'll be the last guy to sign the next year,” Brown said. “My agent, Ed Wasielewski, gets a call, cursed by Tom Brady about why he's pushing back on the scraps contract. Imagine if you heard that, the same guy who brought you in to win a ring, the same agent who told you to hook up with to get the deal, don't tell me, the guy calls him and says: “Yo, curse him. about parts of a contract.'
When asked for clarification, Brown summarized Brady's message to Wasielewski: “Why don't you accept this deal?”
In June I spoke at Tyreek Hill's It had to be said In the podcast, Brown explained that Brady hyped him as he battled an ankle injury prior to the final game of his career.
'Tom called me like 'Yo this week man the Jets man, that sweet man, I'll hit you with like 10 to 12 [targets]
“That's all I need to hear, like 'you're gonna throw me the ball,' this is like saying like I got a new crib, like you know me, you know what I'm saying.
“Tom Brady told me, 'This is a big week,' so I'm like f-k it. I know my problems, but if he's going to fuck me like that, why not?'

Though Brown only had five targets through nearly three quarters. That seemed to bring the former Central Michigan standout to the boiling point.
“You don't want to throw me the ball and make me look like I'm crazy, so I'm like, 'I'm crazy?' Fuck everyone, motherfucker, I'm outta here.”
Brown has also railed against Brady over his 2022 divorce from supermodel Gisele Bundchen.
He has regularly posted doctored photos, playfully implying that he is in a romantic relationship with Brady's ex.
