The long-awaited saga appears to finally be drawing to some sort of conclusion. Disgruntled Steelers star wide receiver Antonio Brown took to Twitter on Tuesday afternoon to formally announce he will not be wearing Steeler black and yellow next year.

Last season was Brown’s age-30 season and showed no real signs of slowing down. He finished the year with his sixth consecutive 100-reception, 1,000-yard season with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and company.
Though he sat out the season finale against the Bengals, Brown still led the league with 15 touchdowns receiving in 2018. He is expected to be traded or released by the Steelers in the near future and should be a hot commodity for anybody looking to bolster their receiving corps.
