Antonio Brown’s ‘Michael Jordan Mindset’ Led To Rift With Ben Roethlisberger, Former LS Kam Canaday Believes

In his illustrious gridiron career, nobody could ever outwork former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown.

That work ethic drove him to greatness, unlocked levels never before seen at the receiver position in Pittsburgh and put Brown on a Hall of Fame trajectory. He put together a five-year span that could be considered the greatest the game has ever seen from a receiver, outside of maybe Jerry Rice.

That work ethic and determination might have also led to his downfall, at least in Pittsburgh, according to former Steelers long snapper Kameron Canaday.

Canaday, who was the long snapper for the Steelers from 2017 through 2020, spent two seasons with Brown and saw the hard work and determination on display daily, whether it was during OTAs, minicamp, training camp or even practices during the season.
