What's going to happen? Your guess is as good as anyone's.
I know AB cannot return to the Patriots over that tirade he put on social media about Kraft.

Sean Payton is the only other coach who may be able to handle AB because, frankly, we may go to the SuperBowl without AB - we aren't desperate for him. Other teams and coaches are too weak or would need AB to perform some miracle. Saints really don't need him, but if we got him it may mean the Saints offense would be more powerful than ever. If AB screws up, he would be cut immediately.

Great Friday drama though....

As the article points out, Seattle would pick him up, as well.

Yeah, now that he worked out with the Saints, a few teams have stepped forward. Seattle "needs" him more than we do. I just think it was a brilliant move by the front office to call Goodell's bluff. Waited until the end of the year, Goodell swore he would put Antonio Brown on the ban list if anyone tried to pick him up during the season, but forgot to mention anything about the "off season."
