Controversial former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown has been known for his hard feelings toward his ex-quarterback, Tom Brady. But he appeared to take the high road on a recent podcast appearance.
Brown and Brady were briefly teammates on the New England Patriots before re-uniting at Tampa Bay and winning a Super Bowl тιтle.
But the two haven’t been on good terms after Brown threw a tantrum during a game against the New York Jets where he went berserk on the sidelines and stripped almost all of his gear off.
Brady allegedly sent a text to Brown after that incident, saying ‘You are demonstrating very poor decisions and poor communication to so many people who have gone above and beyond to help you.’
Since them, Brown launched a number of sH๏τs at Brady – including accusations of him being a bad father and insinuating that Brown slept with the quarterback’s ex-wife, Gisele Bundchen.
Except, on a recent livestream with Adin Ross, Brown was asked again about his ‘entanglement’ with Bundchen.

Brown struggled to hold in his laughter and then responded, ‘I already skipped that one.’
While it was an awkward end to the subject, it comes after Brown apologized to Brady on social media last year.
Brown shared a phone call he had with Brady on his X account – wherein he offered an apology to the seven-time Super Bowl champion.
‘You helped me succeed. You came and got me in the dirt, champ. Helped me be a champion. Helped me be a part of greatness, witness you be so great as a leader and as a person. I never took those things for granted, man,’ said the former WR.
He added, ‘I couldn’t live on without letting you know that as a man. I got nothing but the utmost respect for you, and I’m asking for your forgiveness.’
Brady has never publicly addressed Brown’s comments.
