Well, that escalated quickly!
Shortly after Antonio Brown took to Instagram to express his displeasure with a fine levied by Raiders General Manager and Philly native Mike Mayock, the pair reportedly got into an altercation at practice, per Adam Schefter, Ian Rapoport, and others:
Mayock is 61 years old, but I think he might be able to take Brown. Mike is 6’2″ and played ball at The Haverford School back in the 70s before heading to Boston College, so I would not underestimate the physical tools at his disposal.
So what happens next?
More from Schefty:
You can’t make this shit up. First the helmet nonsense, then the cryotherapy mishap, and now this.
But wait, the story gets even more ridiculous.
Check this out:
Burfict, of course, was the guy who put the ridiculous hit on Brown back in the day, the one that knocked AB out of the 2015 playoff game with a concussion. Now the guys are teammates.. or maybe not, if Brown ends up getting suspended and playing somewhere else instead.
What a mess.
Edit:
Mayock just spoke –
