An ongoing legal dispute between Antonio Brown and celebrity chef Stefano Tedeschi has resulted in the seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver being accused of defamation.

Per TMZ Sports, Brown and Tedeschi began their court battle in Florida in July, when Tedeschi filed a lawsuit accusing the 31-year-old of not paying a $38,521.20 bill.

Earlier this month, Brown responded in a motion to dismiss the lawsuit by saying it was "nothing more than a fledgling action to promote the career of a chef who will use any attempt or frivolous claim to seek fame and/or fortune.
