The Buccaneers, who have already clinched the AFC South, are now down two of their top-three receivers after Chris Godwin tore his ACL.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a tough situation for the Bucs, who will attempt to defend their Super Bowl title this month as a weakened operation. But it\u2019s a tough situation of their own doing \u2013 specifically, of Tom Brady\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n<p>The main reason Brown signed with the Bucs halfway through the 2020 season was due to Brady\u2019s endorsement. In March of that year, head coach Bruce Arians was quoted as saying that Brown was \u201cnot a fit\u201d in Tampa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just know him, and it\u2019s not a fit in our locker room,\u201d Arians, who was the Steelers offensive coordinator with Brown from 2007-\u201911, said at the time. \u201cHe\u2019s too much of a diva.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"936\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=936\" alt=\"Antonio Brown leaves the field shirtless in the middle of the Bucs' game against the Jets\" class=\"wp-image-20694230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1872 1872w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1404 1404w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=936 936w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=468 468w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-01-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\"\/><figcaption>Antonio Brown leaves the field shirtless in the middle of the Bucs\u2019 game against the Jets<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What changed? Brady \u2013 the then-six-time Super Bowl champion who has a say in everything \u2013 felt Brown deserved another chance. He invited the troubled wide receiver to live with him and his family in Florida, hoping Brown would remain on the straight and narrow under his wing.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Brown had been unemployed for over a year, last playing for Brady\u2019s Patriots for just one game in 2019. He was released after his former trainer, Britney Taylor, accused him of rape, and had to serve a suspension from the league before suiting up for Tampa. A Sports Illustrated article around the same time detailed another allegation of sexual misconduct.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-brown-tom-brady.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Tom Brady and Antonio Brown\" class=\"wp-image-20694252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-brown-tom-brady.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-brown-tom-brady.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-brown-tom-brady.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/antonio-brown-tom-brady.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Tom Brady and Antonio Brown<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Brown\u2019s incidents, both on and off the field, stretched well beyond that. He was inactive for the Steelers\u2019 Week 17 game in 2018 after allegedly throwing a ball at a teammate in practice and being upset that JuJu Smith-Schuster was named team MVP. Pittsburgh traded him to the Raiders that offseason, but he feuded with the team over his helmet and was released. In 2020, he was accused of assaulting a moving truck driver and had a number of run-ins with police.<\/p>\n<p>Brady decided to look past the laundry list of red flags for the sole reason that he is a great football player, and could help the Bucs win. For a while, it seemed to be working \u2013 Brown caught a touchdown in the Super Bowl, and Arians called him a \u201cmodel citizen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the other shoe always drops with Brown. It started earlier this season when Brown was suspended by the league yet again for obtaining a fake COVID-19 vaccination card. It ended on Sunday, when he quit on his team in the most dramatic way possible \u2013 tossing his clothes into the stands and walking off the field in the middle of a game.<\/p>\n<p>After the game ended with another dramatic comeback led by Brady, the quarterback was sympathetic, and didn\u2019t call out the fact that the guy he stuck his neck out for up and quit on him.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-wrapper twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Antonio Brown literally quit on Tom Brady in the middle of a game<\/p>\n<p>I absolutely didn\u2019t expect this reaction of im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>te sympathy<\/p>\n<p>who knows what AB is going thru but credit to Brady, this level of empathy &amp; humanity in the moment is impressive <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jl3sL8sCqL\">pic.twitter.com\/jl3sL8sCqL<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SharpFootball\/status\/1477785708425359362?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 2, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI think everyone should be compassionate and empathetic toward some very difficult things that are h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ening,\u201d he said about Brown.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
