Larry Fitzgerald chimed in Saturday on the Steelers' dramatic offseason, suggesting Antonio Brown """"""doesn't properly appreciate the quarterback situation in Pittsburgh.

The decorated Arizona Cardinals receiver was asked about his fellow wideout while appearing on a panel at the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, according to Rene Bugner.

"I love AB. Mr. Big Chest is a good friend of mine. But I don't think he's going about it the right way, personally," Fitzgerald said. "To be able to play with an all-time quarterback like he's able to play with, I don't think he understands how good he has it. It can get tough out there. It can get tough out there."

Ben Roethlisberger has been the starting quarterback for all but four games during Brown's career.

Fitzgerald's played with 16 different starting quarterbacks over his 15 years with the Cardinals, according to Pro Football Talk. His last five signal-callers were Josh Rosen, Sam Bradford, Blaine Gabbert, Drew Stanton, and Carson Palmer.

Pittsburgh is currently fielding offers for Brown, who's on the trading block. The Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans, and Washington Redskins are all reportedly interested in acquiring the receiver.

Brown recently said that Roethlisberger's "owner mentality," and the Steelers' endorsement of it, was the final straw in his relationship with the organization.
