Former Steelers WR Antonio Brown Buys Arena Football Team
Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown is making more business moves, this time circling back to football.
The free agent wideout is joining the ownership group of the Albany Empire of the National Arena League, according to reports. His father, Eddie Brown, is also set to be involved. Eddie was a former player for Albany.
"Albany, New York. I'm here," Brown said in a social media video. "It's a big announcement in the morning. Stay tuned."
Brown's father played for the Albany Firebirds in the 1990's and was an offensive specialist.
The team is expected to announce the move in a press conference this week.
Brown hasn't played in the NFL since leaving mid-game for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in January of 2022. The All-Pro has since joined Kanye West in a number of music partnerships and has appeared as a rapper for venues across the country.
