LONDRES, 3 Ene. (dpa / EP) –
American wide receiver Antonio Brown has left the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League (NFL), the largest professional football league in the United States, after being cut by the team for his incident during Sunday’s win over the New York. Jets.
The controversial player, who participated in the ‘Bucs’ victory in the Super Bowl last season, removed his helmet, jersey and shoulder pads and ran through the locker room tunnel as his team lost in the third quarter at MetLife New York Stadium.
The circumstances surrounding the matter were unclear, but coach Bruce Arians said after the Buccaneers came back (28-24) that Brown was no longer part of their plans. “He’s not a ‘Buc’ anymore. This is the end of the story,” he said in an interview posted on nfl.com.
Brown had returned to action last weekend after overcoming a knee injury and serving a three-game suspension for violating NFL COVID-19 protocols.
Quarterback Tom Brady led the Buccaneers’ comeback in the fourth quarter, clinching victory with 15 seconds ahead of finding Cyril Grayson with a 33-yard touchdown pass. The victory improved his NFC South record to 12-4.
