Antonio Brown Calls Reported Trade to Bills 'Fake News' on Instagram

In recent months, Antonio Brown has proven just as proficient at social media as he is at wide receiver. That trend continued late Thursday night when Brown aired his feelings in the comments.

The NFL reported on itsofficial Instagram that the Buffalo Bills were "closing in" on a deal to acquire Brown from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Brown promptly commented "Fake news" with a siren emoji.

The report came from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, who noted the Bills bested teams such as the Oakland Raiders, Washington Redskins and Tennessee Titans in pursuit of Brown.
