Former Steelers WR has harsh words for Antonio Brown

Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown crossed a line this week on Twitter when he decided to call out and insult JuJu Smith-Schuster. For a guy who can’t find a job, it was pretty bold of him to call out Smith-Schuster for a down season where he had a revolving door of quarterbacks. Needless to say, Brown took plenty of heat for this.

The heat included former Steelers wide receiver Nate Washington who took to Twitter to roast Brown on multiple levels for his disrespectful comments about the young wide receiver.

We particularly liked “I bet the jugs machine don’t even wanna throw to that boy!”

As a point of reference, when Brown and Smith-Schuster were both 23 their difference in stats is quite staggering. Brown had 85 receptions and Smith-Schuster has 211.
