Report: Brown could file record 9 grievances and appeals against NFL
Antonio Brown is attempting to recuperate a substantial amount of money from the Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots following a dramatic summer.
Brown could file an NFL-record nine grievances and appeals during the same time period in an attempt to recover as much of the $61 million-plus he believes is owed to him, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Here's a full list of Brown's grievances and appeals:
Team | Grievance/Appeal | Money |
---|---|---|
Raiders | Fine appeals | $215K |
Raiders | Salary guarantees | $29M |
Raiders | Signing bonus | $1M |
Raiders | Unpaid Week 1 salary | $860K |
Patriots | Salary guarantees | $1M |
Patriots | Signing bonus | $9M |
Patriots | Unpaid Week 3 salary | $64K |
Patriots | Option year in 2020 | $20M |
If the NFL disciplines Brown, he could potentially appeal that as well, per Schefter.
The 31-year-old initially signed with Oakland for $30 million guaranteed. Following his release, New England signed him to a one-year deal worth up to $15 million.
Brown, who has been accused of sexual assault by two different women, was released by the Patriots after one game.
