Despite the fact that his time with the team was brief, he continues to troll the franchise. In an\u00a0April 24 X post\u00a0from Brown\u2019s CTESPN Network, the former All-Pro announced that he\u2019s retiring as a member of the Raiders.<\/p>\n<div id=\"e7c3fa05ee545112b3f6546d322ad4f8\">\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>BREAKING NEWS\u00a0#CTESPN\u00a0\ud83d\udc1d<\/p>\n<p>I am officially retiring today a Raider<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING NEWS <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CTESPN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CTESPN<\/a> \ud83d\udc1d<\/p>\n<p>I am officially retiring today a Raider <\/p>\n<p>6th Rd Pick &#8211;<br \/>Super Bowl Champ \ud83c\udfc6<br \/>2x NFL Receptions Leader<br \/>2x NFL Receiving Yards Leader  <br \/>1x NFL Receiving TDs Leader<br \/>12,291 Receiving Yards <br \/>83 Receiving TDs<br \/>2,934 Return Yards &#8211; 5 TDs<\/p>\n<p>Next Chapter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CTESPN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CTESPN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/32y8KJHHRR\">pic.twitter.com\/32y8KJHHRR<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; CTESPNNetwork (@CtespnN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CtespnN\/status\/1783141114259681504?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 24, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<p>He\u2019s clearly joking as the Raiders would have to sign him to a one-day contract for him to \u201cofficially\u201d retire as a member of the organization. The Raiders would never do that considering how he conducted himself while he was with the team. It\u2019s hard to tell when Brown is being serious or making a joke. He hasn\u2019t been on an NFL roster since 2021 and it\u2019s hard to imagine a team giving him another chance, especially the Raiders.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Is Antonio Brown Actually Retired?<\/h2>\n<p>While Antonio Brown is busy trolling the Raiders, his post on X does beg the question of whether or not he\u2019s actually retiring. Brown appears to still be in shape but he\u2019s already 35, which is older for a wide receiver.<\/p>\n<p>He also hasn\u2019t played in two seasons. Even if Brown isn\u2019t officially retiring, he\u2019s effectively done in the NFL. It\u2019s highly unlikely a team would consider signing him again. He was one of the best wide receivers in the NFL during his prime and was on a Hall of Fame trajectory.<\/p>\n<p>However, he\u2019s alienated a number of franchises with his antics and his ability isn\u2019t good enough to overlook that anymore. Brown is likely won\u2019t be on an NFL field again. He could always consider the USFL or other pro football leagues but that\u2019s unlikely.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Las Vegas Raiders Gearing up for Draft<\/h2>\n<p>The Antonio Brown saga is far in the past for the Raiders and the team has gone through multiple head coaches and general managers since he was released. The team\u2019s focus is squarely on the 2024 NFL Draft right now.<\/p>\n<p>This will be\u00a0Tom Telesco\u2019s\u00a0first draft as the general manager of the Raiders and he recently gave some insight into what he likes to look for in prospects.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s really the work ethic and preparation part of it,\u201d\u00a0Telesco said\u00a0during his April 22 media availability. \u201cThe league is so talented. Like with Joey [Bosa] I remember at the combine he was competing with those drills like it was a game day. He was just soaked in sweat. He was focused on every single drill he did. He\u2019d go back to the bench and sit down, just kind of preparing for the next drill. That meant more than the actual times and how the drills looked, just watching how he works.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJustin Herbert was similar. Where he just attacked everything like it was so important. And especially with the quarterback preparation is so big. In this league it\u2019s got to be more than just talent, you got to have some other things to go alone with that because everybody is so good. And you\u2019ve got to keep developing and proving over time. You can\u2019t level out in this league or else someone passes you by.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Antonio Brown saga\u00a0is something the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders\u00a0are trying to forget.
