Antonio Brown requests trade from Steelers as relationship with team is strained, per report

Some teams start their offseason better than others. The Steelers are not one of those teams.

After a season-long saga starting running back Le’Veon Bell and his contract situation, Mike Tomlin’s team has alienated perhaps its best player.

All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown has reportedly requested a trade from the Steelers, per Jason La Canfora. The important stipulation here was that he simply asked to be dealt, not demanded.

Antonio Brown has requested a trade. Im told it was not a demand but he has asked to be dealt. Very unlikely Rooney would capitulate.
