PITTSBURGH -- Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown hasn't played an NFL game since 2021 when he infamously left mid-game while playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Since then, he's turned his attention to his music career and entrepenuership, and has spent a lot of time building his social media presence - which most-times hasn't been controversal. Now, he's looking to boost his new Kick account and is teasing his official retirement announcesment on his account.

"Still deciding on which team to retire under," Brown wrote on X, asking fans to help him decide.

Brown recently said he can't retire a Steeler after the team gave No. 84 to Cordarrelle Patterson this season. Now, he's apperantly contemplating which of his four team - Steelers, Buccaneers, Las Vegas Raiders and New England Patriots - he's going to officially hang up the cleats with.

The bigger question may be which of these teams is willing to sign him to a one-day contract to officially retire. While his ending in Pittsburgh was messy, they may be open to welcoming him back to say goodbye due to the contributions he made to the team during his time there.

It's unlikely Las Vegas or Tampa Bay would do the same as both of those endings were not very cordial. He spent only a few weeks in New England.
