NFL: A player was sent off after taking off his shirt and leaving the game in the middle of the road (video)

Antonio Brown was already a name that went hand in hand with controversy, and this is a story that defined another chapter on Sunday.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the current NFL champion, was sent off after leaving the field in the middle of a game against the New York Jets.

In the third period of the match, Brown suddenly took off his helmet and shirt and left the field, having thrown his underwear and gloves in front of the crowd and waved in front of the stands.

His teammate, Mike Evans, even tried to dissuade the 33-year-old American, but to no avail.

Now see:

At the end of the match, which the Buccaneers eventually won, the Florida coach confirmed that Brown was no longer part of the team.

“He is no longer a Pirate player. It is the end of the story. I will not talk about him, he is not part of the team ”, said Bruce Aryan at a press conference, who did not want to say what prompted Antonio Brown’s position.

It must be said that Antonio Brown has had a career full of controversies. Recently, he was suspended for three matches after attempting to forge his coronavirus vaccination certificate.

Last week he got upset with the press and complained that the media only wanted drama.

In 2018, he left the Pittsburgh Steelers after a feud with a teammate, and in 2019 he left the New England Patriots with just one game, as he was being investigated for sexual assault.
