Antonio Brown gets vote of confidence from Steelers president

The Steelers are in no way unhappy with Antonio Brown, team president Art Rooney II said Tuesday.

Rooney said Antonio Brown’s well-documented antics are “little annoyances, with the emphasis on little, as far as I’m concerned.” He gave no indication the Steelers are dissatisfied with Brown or considering not extending his contract, which expires after the 2017 season.

In fact, on the contrary, Rooney said, “Antonio is a good guy, a good person. I enjoy him as a personal relationship. He's someone his teammates like to have on the team. He’s a hard worker. He's another player we're hoping to address his contract and have here for the long term.
