NFL champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers has now officially parted with professional scandal Antonio Brown. The contract with Brown was terminated with immediate effect, as the franchise announced.
The football star caused a sensation in the duel at the New York Jets with his uncontrolled exit during the game when the wide receiver took off his jersey and left the field in the third quarter.
The 33-year-old had previously announced through his lawyer that he had refused to play injured and was then banned from the team by Bucs coach Bruce Arians.
According to Brown, he is suffering from an ankle injury, and investigations are said to have revealed a torn ligament and bone splinters in the joint. Coach Arians disagreed that Brown stormed off the field because of this ankle injury.
“Although Antonio had an ankle treatment and was listed in the injury report the week before the game last Sunday, he was cleared to play by our medical team before the game started and at no point during the game did he tell our medical staff that he wasn’t can play “, it said in the message.
“We have tried several times this week to arrange an evaluation by an external orthopedic surgeon, but Antonio has not complied. Maintaining the health and well-being of our players is of the utmost importance to our organization,” said the Bucs.
