Don’t read too much into Antonio Brown’s latest Instagram post

Every time former Pittsburgh Steelers Antonio Brown posts something on social media it immediately goes under the microscope. I’m as guilty of it as anyone. But no one needs to get too excited about his latest Instagram post.

The pic above shows Brown celebrating with his former Steelers teammates including JuJu Smith-Schuster. It would be easy to look at this and wonder if Brown is missing his former team and there is some sort of hidden message in this about Brown wanting to mend fences.

But don’t buy it. Brown’s ego isn’t likely to allow him to ever allow him to swallow his pride and own any of the things he did wrong. This really feels like Brown somehow giving himself credit for the fact Smith-Schuster offered genuine concern for Brown in an interview during Super Bowl week. That he somehow had something to do with Smith-Schuster being such a legitimately good person.
