When you are a business partner turned nemesis of Antonio Brown, it's been proven that one of the most effective ways of pressuring the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers wideout into forking over money from an outstanding balance is by airing out your grievances in a highly publicized fashion. It's a notion that worked well for his former trainer, Sean Pena, and his former chef, Stefano Tedeschi, right before they each filed lawsuits against him for unlawful business practices. Now, it looks as though AB is taking a page out of the playbook of his disgruntled plaintiffs.

The seven-time Pro Bowler recently took to Instagram to post a racy photo of himself in bed with Cydney Christine (aka Lil CC). She is a model and music producer who is known for having been romantically linked to celebrities like DeSean Jackson, Lil Bibby, and Trey Songz in the past. It is being speculated that Brown posted the controversial photo on Instagram stories and tagged her in order to shame her into paying off a debt that she allegedly owed him.

"Stop playing wit me," Brown wrote. "[Cydney Christine] got the p*ssy on BC."

"Please don't do that to me," replied Christine, in a private message to Brown after noticing that she had been tagged in the post. "I'm really sorry, I just didn't like the way you were talking to me...This isn't gonna help anything. What can I do to fix it?"

"Send my money b**ch," he shot back. "$5K or [you'll] be exposed... H*e [you] know, stop playing with me b**ch. Ima show [you] this time," said Brown in a scathing response.

As of now, there is no word on whether or not either party will file a lawsuit over this ordeal.
