The news of Brown’s release comes less than 24 hours after a Sports Illustrated report indicated Brown sent “intimidating” text messages to one of his sexual assault accusers in recent days.

New tonight: Antonio Brown sent our source from Monday’s story menacing group text messages, including a picture of her children with instructions for his associates to investigate her.

Her lawyer wrote the NFL calling for the intimidation to stop. https://t.co/rCTM8WSI6Z pic.twitter.com/QtONzBf7Ig
