Ever since the former Super Bowl champion walked off the field in January 2022, he has become a black spot in the public eye. Fans have been closely following him, and the veteran has constantly sustained his identity as a controversial star. His recent remarks seem to have ignited a new debate online.
Antonio Brown berates Jalen Ramsey
The 34-year-old has plenty of subjects to talk about since he got engaged in various fields other than football. He tried his luck in music, and now business happens to be his new fantasy. Being an internet celebrity, Brown often appeared in several podcasts, and his recent one was a Game podcast with the hip-hop artist Gillie Da King.
He was asked to name his favorite cornerback in the NFL. Although he hesitated in the beginning, Brown spit out Jalen Ramsey’s name. It was a fair choice and a pick made by almost every other receiver in the league.

Initially, he praised the star; however, he went on to criticize the six-time Pro Bowler. “Probably Jalen Ramsey talked a lot,” Brown said during the podcast. “We bombed him, first play. A guy like that, we bombed his first play. So, I was looking in his eyes and then walked away like that. First play, we take him deep! That’s how we started the game with him.” he added.
Brown also went on to address the matter that Ramsey claimed previously that no other receiver than DeAndre Hopkins had over 100 yards with him. AB mentioned that some people go mice on these cornerbacks; however, he was not the guy and bragged about his achievements later on.

As soon as AB made his comments public, they instantly went viral on social media. Ramsey, who caught wind of this matter, came forward to clarify the statistics. “Lord knows I won more than I lost lol God bless,” Ramsey said per Yardbarker.

“Oh and after that catch he talking about from the year before, he didn’t have another catch that game ON ME. And this ain’t no disrespect kus he too 5 ALL time, but shid ain’t never sweet so let’s get sum straightening,” he added.
Well, to some extent, Ramsey is correct because he has been brutal in the early stages of his career. Brown and the cornerback had faced each other only four times, and after AB’s retirement, fans won’t be able to watch this duo contesting on the same field again.
