Brown: Bucs tried to 'hurt me intentionally'

Warning: Story contains coarse language

Antonio Brown still has more to get off his chest regarding the infamous walkout incident that led to his release.

The free-agent receiver shared an X-ray of his ankle Monday in an Instagram post and ripped Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians and quarterback Tom Brady.

Brown maintains the Bucs demanded he play in the Week 17 matchup against the New York Jets while injured. He also claims the Buccaneers tried to "intentionally" hurt him and that Brady told him he would throw him the ball if he played through the injury.

The X-ray, which has now been deleted, is also dated October 2021.

Brown has previously denied that wanting targets led to his walkout.

"(I'm) not worried about the ball. Tom Brady is my guy, he's the reason I'm on Tampa Bay, so I know I'm gonna get the ball," Brown said in January.

The 33-year-old wideout joined the Bucs in 2020 and helped them capture Super Bowl LV. He was limited to seven games during the 2021 campaign due to an ankle injury and a suspension for misrepresenting his vaccination status.
