Antonio Brown Set to Hold Out for New Deal

Antonio Brown won’t be at the Pittsburgh Steelers’ facility on Monday for the start of offseason workouts, and there’s a chance he won’t be around the team for a while. The All-Pro wide receiver, who has caught 239 passes in the past two seasons combined, will be skipping the voluntary workout program and is mulling sitting out mandatory minicamp and perhaps even training camp in an attempt to secure a new contract, sources have told FOX Sports.

Brown and his camp have already spoken to team management about redoing his deal and told them his absence this spring will be related to the deal.
