PITTSBURGH — Antonio Brown has made mass headlines as of late, with his most recent choice of words being struck at new Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni. Brown called out his former coach, saying he’s been using his name to land jobs, and apparently lying about something.
“Cracker still using my name for jobs and lying,” Brown posted on X (formerly known as Twitter). This was in response to the Steelers hiring Azzanni as their new wide receivers coach.
Brown has been on a tear recently, calling out future Hall of Famer J.J. Watt, and making cruel jokes about Iowa star Caitlin Clark. This all comes after months of using his social media platform to deface sports figures and stars
platform to deface sports figures and stars.
Azzanni worked with Brown at Central Michigan, as the assistant head coach/wide receivers coach. During Brown’s time in college, he was named an All-American punt returner in 2008 and 2009.
Since then, he had a long run at the college level before joining the NFL as a wide receivers coach for the Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, New York Jets and now the Steelers.
Pittsburgh announced the hire after deciding not to renew Frisman Jackson’s contract this offseason. Azzani is set to help continue the progression of Diontae Johnson, George Pickens and Calvin Austin this season.
