Former Steelers' Antonio Brown Says He's Headed to Help Chandler Jones

The former Pittsburgh Steelers wideout says he's headed out to help the Raiders linebacker.

PITTSBURGH -- Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown says he's headed to Las Vegas to check in on an old friend. With Raiders linebacker Chandler Jones away from the team and dealing with unknown issues outside of football, Brown said on social media that he's packing his bags and going to see him. 

In a string of recent strange behavior from Jones, he went live on Instagram and broke down crying when talking about his former teammate Aaron Hernandez. That video has since gone viral, and Brown caught the message and made sure to respond.

Jones responded by joking that the two will do a "CTE podcast" when Brown arrives. That's when Brown re-confirmed he's coming out to see Jones. 

Brown's final message was that he would mend the gap between Jones and the Raiders. As many know, Brown's time with Vegas didn't go well after he and then general manager Mike Mayock had disagreements. 

Brown eventually left the team and went on a social media rant until they released him. 

"I will be mending the gap at @Raiders @chanjones55 we can do it let’s get him back on squid games, let him play allow him opportunity to level up his outburst just held in pent up aggression he got presidential blood line of Geechy. You never know what we individually been through……CTE," Brown wrote.

Jones has been away from the team throughout the season and has posted worrisome content directed at head coach Josh McDaniels. He's claimed the team will not allow him to join them.
