Patriots release Antonio Brown

3. Good. We didn't need him that badly, nobody does.

Additional context from ESPN:

In addition to the lawsuit, Brown faces another allegation of sexual misconduct by a female artist who was working at his Western Pennsylvania home in 2017. That allegation was part of a Sports Illustrated report published Monday that detailed domestic incidents involving Brown, a charity auction theft and multiple unpaid debts.

On Thursday, the lawyer for the artist reached out to the NFL after Brown apparently sent what were described as threatening text messages to her client.

According to a statement from the woman's attorneys Friday, the Patriots then directed Brown to have no further contact with the woman.

The way I see it, the Patriots welcome you to the team with a clean slate (remember, the Pats didn't know about all Brown's issues until after they signed him), but hold you accountable for your actions from that point on. When Brown escalated things with the second accuser, he was done. It makes a certain kind of sense, I guess.
