Former Steelers WR Antonio Brown and Asante Samuel clash on social media

[ASFN Admin]

Antonio Brown often finds himself in the middle of social media drama — but this time, he's in the crosshairs of former CB Asante Samuel.

Samuel blasted Brown for his antics and made a bold claim about how Mike Tomlin handled AB:

"If Mike Tomlin never babied you, NFL would’ve been an afterthought. You couldn’t survive anywhere else. The Steelers organization and players allowed you to act crazy. Lucky you never played on my team. You would’ve been dealt with immediately and not by the coach. Facts!"

The former two-time Super Bowl champion CB may be onto something regarding the Steelers' handling of Brown — but claiming the NFL 2010s All-Decade receiver would be an “afterthought” is a stretch.

Brown responded to Samuel's claims by asking what the former Patriots CB has done in his post-NFL career.

Steelers fans may hope to remember Brown for the excellence he brought to the game of football — but his social media spats, as well as real-life antics, sometimes make it difficult to get behind.
