Antonio Brown is clearly a man who loves to be in the news.
Since storming off the field during a stint with Tom Brady's Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the controversial wide receiver has been constantly making headlines for one reason or another.
While the former Raiders star has been stoking the fire primarily due to his off-field shenanigans, it appears he could squeeze his way back into NFL news circles pretty soon.
Brown's agent JR Rickert told CBS Sports this week that there's "genuine" interest in the former NFL receiver:

"He is exploring the right fit," his agent told CBS Sports.
Brown, of course, hasn't been seen in the NFL since Week 17 back in 2021. He famously walked off the field against the Jets.
With the Bucs trailing against NY in the fourth quarter, Brown appeared to have a quarrel with his coaches. Following an exchange, the WR tossed bits of his equipment into the stands, going down the tunnel topless while waving to the crowd in the stadium. That was the last the NFL saw of Antonio Brown on the field.
Where is Antonio Brown now?
These days, Brown is keeping his nose out of Tom Brady's business at least.
The revered former Steelers WR will reportedly suit up for the Albany Empire, an Arena Football League franchise he may or may not be an owner of. The team has been facing issues of its own after firing two head coaches and reportedly refusing to pay its players.
Amid this trouble, Brown has reportedly decided to suit up for the team's next home game on May 27.
There was also a brief dalliance with the Baltimore Ravens, according to Brown himself.
"Excited to return to the NFL this year," he tweeted one day with a picture of himself in a Ravens shirt at the end of April.
However, nothing came of Brown's declaration. The Ravens quickly moved to sort out their wide receiver troubles, signing Odell Beckham Jr. and drafting Boston's Zay Flowers as help for QB Lamar Jackson.
For what it's worth, Antonio Brown had 42 catches for 545 yards and four touchdowns to his name in seven games in his last NFL season. Not exactly Pro Bowl numbers, but Brown did end up with a Super Bowl to his name.
