Antonio Brown on turning 30: 'I don't pay attention to my age'

Antonio Brown is considered one of the game's premier receivers. He's been dominant, particularly over the past five seasons when he's averaged 1,569 yards and has shown no signs of slowing.

But the Pittsburgh Steelers star turned 30 years old Tuesday, an age that strikes fear into the hearts of executives across the league. It's often regarded as the point after a player's peak, when a steep drop off is expected.

Brown has no such concerns.

"I don't pay attention to my age," he said to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "I'm feeling great, I'm healthy and I'm in great shape. I feel as long as I have that, I can continue to be productive."

Brown signed a four-year, $68-million contract extension last year, ensuring he'll remain with the Steelers as they continue to push for their first Super Bowl appearance since 2010, Brown's rookie season.
