Antonio Brown apologizes for threatening ESPN writer in tweet

"@jessewashington wait to I see you bro we gone see what your jaw like," is what Brown tweeted after Washington's story -- Antonio Brown is an Instagram All-Pro. But is that the full picture? -- was published on The Undefeated last week.
