Antonio Brown takes dig at Tom Brady, threatens to have trainer ‘smacked’

Former New England Patriots receiver Antonio Brown was at it again in another social media venting session. This time, it was aimed in the direction of his former teammate, quarterback Tom Brady, and Brady’s longtime trainer, Alex Guerrero.

Brown opened up by threatening to have Guerrero “smacked.” He then went on to accuse Brady of “manipulating the game” by taking days off in training camp.

The former longtime Patriots quarterback, now the quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, cleared time with Bucs coach Todd Bowles ahead of training camp to step away for a bit and handle a “personal” matter.

“Alex Guerra You think i won’t have u smacked at TB12 boy stop playing with me ! Boy getting paid by bucks n taking players money too,” Brown tweeted.

 

He then went in on Brady’s excused absence.

“Tom brady manipulate the game gets 14 days go home get his mind rt lol Now u see the difference Put that [expletive] on,” Brown posted.

Brown’s stay in Foxborough lasted only two weeks before ending amid sexual assault allegations back in 2019. He reconnected with Brady in Tampa Bay and went on to help the Bucs beat the Kansas City Chiefs at Super Bowl LV.

But that reunion came to an end after the team’s Week 17 matchup last season with the New York Jets, when Brown pulled off his jersey and walked off the field during the game.
