When reports surfaced of Pittsburgh Steelers Pro Bowl WR not showing to voluntary workouts, fans and media were wondering why. Then reports surfaced from several media members stating Brown is requesting a new contract, and then the storm started to brew.
Fans criticized Brown for being 'selfish', while others felt the man should get paid for what he wants, but there was a clear disdain within the fan base regarding Brown's situation and how he was handling it. Over the past 24 hours, Brown has taken to social media to quiet the storm a bit, and explain why he wasn't at workouts as well as his overall excitement for the 2015 season.
