Re: Antonio Brown at Saints Facility
Oh boy!!! To wake up to this kind of news is crazy. One hand I feel like it’s Xmas on the 27th and on the other hand with all his antics I feel like he can be major distraction. Roll the dice and the worst that can come out is probably a compensation pick in 2020.

Re: Antonio Brown at Saints Facility
The guy will have to clear league protocol
His serious off field allegations That process has been in the deep freeze No way does it happen for the playoffs This sounds like just press fodder for Espn, NFL Network, Fox Sports etc they can talk at length downgrade our achievements etc I'd rather win with what we got than this circus Pisses me off we didn't get Emmanuel Sanders for a win now scenario now he IS the GO TO wr for San Fran terrible |

These sorts of investigations can turn ugly, quick. Why risk that for someone that may or may not play again. If the Saints shows enough interests the league would start the investigation. Still wouldn’t conclude in time for the playoffs, well maybe the last 2m of the 4th Qtr kf the Super Bowl. |

Re: Antonio Brown at Saints Facility
The league isn't stopping him from playing. As I pointed out earlier, the commissioner could prevent him from playing by placing him on the exempt list, IF and only IF he so chooses and that requires Brown to be signed to an NFL contract first. I don't expect any suspension until AFTER any investigation is complete.
