Drama between the Raiders and wide receiver Antonio Brown doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon. After Brown posted his fines to Instagram, it seems the Raiders plan on suspending him.
The Next Chapter: Antonio Brown and GM Mike Mayock got into it Wednesday, and the team is now planning to suspend its star wide receiver, league sources tell ESPN.

Well this isn’t great for all those Antonio Brown owners out there. No word on exactly how long the suspension will be but this fighting between the team and Brown doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. If I had Brown on my team, I’d be looking to cut bait with him ASAP. Sorry, but I don’t want to deal with this all season long, regardless how good he might be this year.
Also, get ready for a big uptick in work from Josh Jacobs, Tyrell Williams and hopefully (since he’s on one of my fantasy squads) Darren Waller.
