A video was released tonight via Antonio Brown’s verified YouTube page featuring what seems to be a secretly recorded conversation between him and Jon Gruden where the two talk about AB’s desire to play for the Raiders or not.
This video was released after Jon Gruden announced that Antonio Brown will not be suspended for a confrontation with Raiders GM Mike Mayock and will play Monday night against the Denver Broncos.
In the video description, AB or one of his marketing reps writes:
With all these false narratives antagonizing me, it’s time for me to control my own narrative. Show the world I’m not the bad guy. Show the world you can free yourself from the lies and become your own person. I am not just AB the football player, I am Antonio Brown, the person, who paved a way for himself to be in charge of his own life. Free me!
In what feels like his own reality show, Brown has been about as unpredictable as it gets. The question remains if the guy will even play Monday or will he sabotage his career before we get that far into the season.
This lil light of mine time to let it shine

Gruden allegedly thinks the video is “awesome.” Yeah, I bet.
