Business is no longer booming for former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown. The seven-time Pro Bowler has filed for bankruptcy and owes $3 million to creditors, according to the Times Union of Albany, New York.
In last week’s court filing, Brown noted that he has less than $50,000 in assets, the newspaper reported.
“Generational run continues,” the 35-year-old wrote on X as he confirmed the news.
Brown racked up a litany of off-field issues during his NFL career, including sexual assault allegations from a former trainer and an incident where he was accused of attacking a truck driver.
The Central Michigan product was arrested in 2023 for unpaid child support, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office said.
Unafraid of making headlines, Brown sat down for an interview with OutKick this week and praised former President Donald Trump.
“I’ve never met him. I’ve got admiration for his business moves. … I think Donald Trump is a good businessman and comes from a good family and has been a good president,” Brown told author Nick Adams.
The former Pittsburgh Steeler said he appreciated that Trump pardoned four hip-hop performers on his last day in the White House in 2021.
“I think he does some great things for my brothers in the music industry in regards to Lil Wayne, Kodak [Black],” Brown said.
