Antonio Brown touts his high IQ as the underlying reason for constant discussion about his mental health. You know what they say about people who brag about their IQ, don’t you? I don’t, I thought maybe you did. But I’ve heard they usually took IQ tests on random ads on websites and actually have no clue what their real IQ is…
Former Bucs receiver Antonio Brown, speaking on @CBSMornings today about his exit from Tampa, was asked about his mental health: "I've never had a mental health diagnosis … I've never had an issue or problem. I don't take pills. I just got a high IQ."

Antonio Brown is in the Antonio Brown business and business is not booming like it once was. He’s getting older but can still physically compete in the NFL, for now. He’ll almost certainly get another shot from a team next season but we’re certainly seeing a pattern at this point.
