So, at 4:01PM ET he can sign with another team. The Cowboys and Patriots have been most willing to take a chance on bad boys lately. The Chiefs, Bengals and Redskins might take a look. There aren't a lot of teams where he wouldn't be their top receiver. It'll be fun to see where he signs.

AB can't sign with anyone until after four, but I'm betting Drew Rosenhaus (his agent) is working the phone nearly nonstop. Negotiating a new deal will be tricky. I'm betting it'll be minimum guaranteed and a ton of incentives.

There's a pretty hot rumor that the Redskins would like to sign AB. The phone call between the two Gruden's could be interesting to eavesdrop on. The Redskins could use a top notch wide receiver, but is there anyone on the team that could check AB?

To the shock and surprise of no one, NFL.com is reporting that Antonio Brown is signing with the Patriots.

[JillyMarie]

Word on the street is it's the Pats.

[gardenman]

A one year, $15 million with a $9 million signing bonus. Some are speculating that Drew Rosenhaus learned the Pats were interested and relayed that to AB who forgot his "forgive me" plea made last night and inspired his latest tantrum to get cut.

Though not a fan of either team, I'm hoping Pittsburgh wins Sunday night. (apologies to Sunshine45). Just to spite NE and show them that the Steelers don't need A.B. and his tantrums. Josh Gordon and Antonio Brown together, it would be too funny if Brown continued acting up and Gordon got into trouble again. I'm just tired of NE always winning everything. It was especially nice when the Eagles beat them in the Superbowl.

It's probably been the plan all along. He played everyone like a fiddle.

That was a pretty quick deal, minutes after 4 lol
