What a bizarre year for Antonio Bryant. He went from the best receiver in the league, to forcing his way out of Pittsburgh, then forcing his way out of Oakland and eventually on to the Patriots only to have all of this sexual assault and off-the-field stuff to derail him.
At the end of the day I think AB thought he was bigger than the league. No football player is bigger than the shield. Not Tom Brady, not Patrick mahomes and certainly not Antonio Bryant. He's a 31 year old receiver who can be replaced in a second.
