    Steelers and WR Antonio Brown At Odds

    Steelers receiver Antonio Brown did not play in the season-ending game against the Cincinnati Bengals because he elected to sit out practice last week after an unspecified heated dispute with a teammate, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has learned.

    Several sources said the Steelers’ decision to not play Brown against the Bengals had nothing to do with any type of knee injury.

    He did not attend Saturday’s walk-through practice and skipped the Saturday night meeting at the team hotel — the latest in missed meetings by the All-Pro receiver. Brown was never on the field for the start of the game against the Bengals and left Heinz Field at halftime, according to multiple sources.

    Brown did not practice all week and was listed as questionable on the injury report before the game. When he did not practice on Wednesday, the reason listed on the official report was “coaches decision.” On Thursday, the reason was listed as “coaches decision/knee.”

    Another reason to fire Tomlin and hire a coach that can reign in players.

    If the story is true, something needs to be done with the culture of the team...

    On second thought if Brown threw a ball at Artie Burns, was he wrong or was everyone that didn’t throw a ball at Burns wrong??

    Season is over nothing to talk about make some up. Until I hear it straight from the receiver’s mouth, I don’t believe anything.

    Brown also left at Halftime and did not return. This is the level of accountability that will continue and cost this team until Tomlin is replaced

    The Pittsburgh Steelers themselves are a soap opera, they have created this mess so now they can attempt to clean it up

    Where did it say that he threw a ball? Really. I missed that part.

    IDEA: Trade AB to the Jaguars straight up for Jalen Ramsey.

    Re: Steelers and WR Antonio Brown At Odds

    Pittsburgh Steelers players were surprised Antonio Brown didn't play in Sunday's season finale, and Brown's absence was not addressed by head coach Mike Tomlin during his meeting with the team Monday, multiple sources told NFL Network's Aditi Kinkhabwala.
    Brown was not present at the team meeting, sources told Kinkhabwala, and there was frustration in the locker room after the tumultuous week was not addressed at all by the head coach. Brown was absent from the team's walkthrough Saturday, and a member of the organization told Kinkhabwala that Brown left Heinz Field Sunday at halftime.
    The Steelers listed Brown with a knee injury on Thursday's injury report after initially labeling him with a not-injury-related designation on Wednesday. He didn't practice all week and, on Friday, Tomlin told reporters he was undergoing tests on his knee.
    However, multiple sources told Kinkhabwala that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and Brown had "a little bit of a disagreement" during last Wednesday's walkthrough. The drama intensified amid Brown being designated as questionable on Friday's injury report. On Sunday, he was ruled out against the Cincinnati Bengals.

    It was someone higher in the Steelers hierarchy than Burns

    Think this goes a long way in explaining how flat the offense was yesterday.

    Not sure how this plays out going forward? But the possibility of AB getting traded has to be considered.

    Brown has become a diva a-hole on and off the field. Not Tomlin's fault.

    I guess you'll just have to wait to hear from Tomlin on Wednesday. I'm sure they will have to do damage control if it's so.

    Gerry Dulac is a very reliable writer. He would not put this out there without it being true.

    Only player who gets in front of Tomlin on this sort of stuff makes his radio appearances on Tuesday morning - doubtful even he will go near this story but Tomlin is going to have to address it so hang in there until Wednesday

    AB seemed a bit lazy on some plays this year. Effort at the top of routes or going for a ball that wasn't perfectly thrown seemed to be an issue.
    He's going to be 31 prior to next season. Is he still worth $17M/yr. Based on yesterday's offensive performance against a bad D, I might say yes.
    But JuJu looks like he could be a ligit #1, and I thought Washington improved a lot down the stretch after his mid season benching.

    Based on this line in Bouchette's story?

    At least one teammate phoned Brown in the days leading up to the game, but he did not return the call.
