Steelers, Antonio Brown Both Took A Risk On 2012 Contract

It was reported yesterday that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown is seeking a new contract following two consecutive All-Pro seasons during which he broke the franchise’s single-season receiving yardage record, taking down both the receptions and receiving touchdown records along with him as well in 2014.

Brown led the league in both receptions and receiving yardage last season with 129 and 1698, respectively, and that reception total was the second-most in a single season in NFL history. Over the span of the past two seasons, the five-year veteran has accumulated 239 receptions for 3197 yards and 21 touchdowns.
