#AntonioBrown #Raiders  #NFL The trade sending Antonio Brown to the Raiders isn’t official yet, but an agreement is in place for the wideout to land with a new team and sign a new contract when he gets there. Brown’s desire for a new contract that would make him the league’s highest-paid receiver was seen as the biggest obstacle to a deal with the Bills that was in play late last week. During a Sunday appearance on NFL Network, Brown’s agent Drew Rosenhaus said the Bills “decided it wasn’t a great fit for them” while talking to the Steelers and that the decision not to move forward didn’t come down to his client. “You know what, I don’t know that there was ever an option for us, quite frankly,” Rosenhaus said. “We never got in that position.

#AntonioBrown  #PittsburghSteelers #NFL Antonio Brown is making his trade request about his contract. The embattled Pittsburgh Steelers receiver said on an Instagram video that he's not playing without more guaranteed money. Brown has told the Steelers he wants to be dealt and is using social media to reinforce that desire. "If your squad out there want to win and your squad want a hungry wide receiver who's the best in the whole world, someone hit my phone," Brown said into his phone camera while working on an elliptical. "Tell them I ain't doing no unguarantees. I ain't even gonna play myself no more for this NFL, you heard." Brown has no more true guarantees left on his current deal. The five-year, $72.7 million extension he signed in 2017 includes base salaries of $12.625 million, $11.3 million and $12.5 million. Those relatively modest numbers are considered a selling point in a trade. Brown is due a $2.5 million roster bonus on March
