Antonio Brown has stirred controversy once again by taking a deeply personal shot at former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, reigniting their long-standing feud.
In a now-viral tweet, Brown made an explicit and shocking allegation involving Roethlisberger’s sister, writing:
"Ben Roethlisberger Still MAD 😡 His sister suckk my d***. 2011 Pro Bowl."
Brown and Roethlisberger were teammates on the Steelers for nine seasons, forming one of the most prolific quarterback-receiver duos in the NFL. However, their relationship deteriorated toward the end of Brown’s time with the team.
Last year, former Steelers long snapper Kam Canaday shed light on the tension between the two. Speaking on a podcast, Canaday praised Brown's work ethic and suggested that it may have contributed to the conflict.
“[Antonio Brown] is one of the hardest-working motherf*ers I’ve ever been around in my entire life,”
Canaday said. “This is during camp, when guys were trying to work their absolute a off to make the team, and he’s still blowing everyone out of the water... The guy had a motor. He didn’t slow down, and he was like that for 16 weeks.”
Canaday implied that Roethlisberger's more relaxed approach—likely earned after two Super Bowl wins and years of wear and tear—clashed with Brown's relentless intensity.
“Ben would sit out a little bit. He just liked to take it easy until Sunday. He kind of earned it, but when Antonio Brown was running routes for second and third stringers and then not getting that connection on Sundays, yeah, he’s going to start freaking out,” Canaday continued. “That’s kind of what he did, which I don’t blame him for, because he’s got that Michael Jordan mindset.”
Neither Roethlisberger nor his representatives have publicly responded to Brown’s latest comments. The tweet adds another layer of drama to a rivalry that has long outlived their time together on the field.
