Antonio Brown posts edited photo of Steelers OC Matt Canada with Hitler mustache

Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown took his very public issues with offensive coordinator Matt Canada to a new level over the weekend. After throwing his name out there to potentially replace Canada due to the Steelers offense’s slow start to the season, Brown posted a photo of the Pittsburgh coordinator with a drawn-on Hitler mustache.

Not wanting to cause any confusion, AB provided some additional context, tweeting: “Adolf Canada.”

The posts from the former NFL wideout comparing the Steelers OC to one of the most evil figures in world history are certainly strange. Regardless, Canada managed to help the Steelers to their first win of the season on Sunday, clinching a 23-18 win over the Raiders.

Last week, quarterback Kenny Pickett only completed half of his passes, and running back Najee Harris only rushed for 43 yards on ten carries.

Playing with the Steelers from 2010 to 2018, Brown accumulated 837 receptions and 11,207 receiving yards. His stats place him second in franchise history behind legendary wideout Hines Ward.

After leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers, Brown made a pit stop in New England for a one-game stint with the Patriots before settling down in Tampa for two more seasons.

In seven games in 2021, Brown caught 42 passes for 545 yards and four touchdowns.

Brown embroiled in scandal since Tampa Bay departure

Despite his history with the team, it’s unlikely the Steelers come calling for Brown’s leadership skills anytime soon. The wide receiver who ended his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has made few positive headlines since leaving the league. Brown took over the Albany Empire of the AFL but his ownership fell apart in stunning fashion.

The AFL kicked Brown’s team out as Commissioner Chris Siegfried reported that Albany owed $21,000 in league assessment fees.

The Empire’s coaches and players are also threatening a lawsuit against Brown and his trust after their final paycheck ended up leaving their bank accounts after they had already posted.

Empire wide receiver Fabian Guerra told the Times-Union he would join a lawsuit against Brown.

“I feel like this was his plan all along,” Guerra said in June. “I feel like he does stuff for social media and to sell his songs… think it’s just what he does. That’s the type of guy he is. No one trusts him anymore. I see it hard for him to get any future deals going because of how he is as a person.”
