Antonio Brown missed practices, game after dispute with teammate
https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/...s/201812310108
Steelers receiver Antonio Brown did not play in the season-ending game against the Cincinnati Bengals because he elected to sit out practice last week after an unspecified heated dispute with a teammate, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has learned. Several sources said the Steelers’ decision to not play Brown against the Bengals had nothing to do with any type of knee injury. The disagreement occurred Wednesday morning during a routine walk-through practice that precedes their regular afternoon practice on the South Side. Brown became disgusted and threw a football in anger at one of his teammates, several sources said. After that, Brown did not practice the rest of the week. According to a source, it was Brown’s decision not to practice with his teammates. He did not attend Saturday’s walk-through practice and skipped the Saturday night meeting at the team hotel — the latest in missed meetings by the All-Pro receiver. Brown was never on the field for the start of the game against the Bengals and left Heinz Field at halftime, according to multiple sources. According to several sources, Brown showed up at Heinz Field expecting to play against the Bengals. That surprised several players, including one who called the situation “embarrassing” and “the worst I’ve seen.” That player said the entire situation and the way it was handled affected his desire to play in the game. |

That still ticks me off. Coaches are supposed to be leaders of their organization, not idiots like that. I've disliked Tomlin ever since he pulled that.

He's a good coach, needs to get out of there.

I have no idea what happens in that locker room but it's certainly possible that the culture he created/allows is part of the reason this climate was created.

Don't enable it? There are egos and horrible personalities all over the league. Why is it only the Steelers that have their dirty laundry aired out every other week with next to no response from Tomlin or anyone else in the organization?

It seems like on a long enough timeline just about every head coach eventually loses control. Not sure why as players cycle out over time, but it just seems to always happen eventually.

Brown is TO part II. I feel like this has been obvious for about 4 years but maybe it’s just me.

Remember that video with the Steelers players ‘raiding’ Leveon’s locker and Bud Dupree with a shit eating grin on his face. Just bad juju all around that locker room.

I actually thought that was good for the team if anything. Bringing the team together, instead of a part.

Tomlin is a good coach, who was lucky as well. But he still never has had a losing season. Ever.

Let's see if the NFL investigates the Steelers for lying on their injury report.
