Antonio Brown still has things to say about former Steelers teammates
If there’s anything we’ve learned about Oakland Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown in recent months, it’s that he’s not one to let sleeping dogs lie.
A day after JuJu Smith-Schuster threw support behind Big Ben, Brown seemingly took a shot at his former Pittsburgh Steelers teammate.
Do not listen to any NFL player who haven’t got paid yet! They will do and say anything to make sure they going to get paid even if it’s compromising integrity or anything ! sad but true

Brown didn’t outright name Smith-Schuster, but it seems clear he’s targeting the third-year receiver here with this comment.
Smith-Schuster is still playing out his rookie contract, and he just defended a person who Brown seems to despise.
There’s also the dynamic at play here that Smith-Schuster is essentially supplanting Brown in Pittsburgh as the team’s No. 1 receiver — something that started taking place last year.
So, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to connect these dots.
What is crystal clear is that Brown is harboring plenty of animosity for his old team and that he feels he has something to prove going forward with the Oakland Raiders.
