Antonio Brown recently made some sensational claims on social media, including stating that he is filing for bankruptcy and asserting that he is a guaranteed Hall of Fame inductee.
On one of his social media accounts, CTESPNNetwork, Brown shared a surprising “breaking news” post announcing that he filed for bankruptcy on Monday.
The post also boldly declared, “He will be a first ballot hall of famer in 2027. He will be releasing new music this summer.” Additionally, Brown shared a link to a Cash App page for CTESPN and made vulgar comments alongside a claim of financial struggle.
Notably, Brown frequently promotes “CTESPNNetwork” on social media, often using it as a hashtag. The platform also hosts a podcast and website, with its first episode featuring NFL receiver Tyreek Hill released on May 13.
In the bankruptcy post, Brown proclaimed himself as “the founder of the most trusted source in all of sports,” despite the absence of any posts in the “news” section of CTESPNNetwork.
Brown’s financial decisions have faced significant criticism, with accusations of non-payment for services, a football team owned by him being expelled from the National Arena League in 2023 due to non-payment, and a 2023 arrest in Florida for missing child support payments.

In addition to his football career, Brown is also known for his music, with a scheduled performance in 2022 that he failed to attend, later directing inquiries about the event deposit to his lawyer.
While Brown enjoyed a successful NFL career marked by seven Pro Bowl appearances and four All-Pro selections, his time in the league was also marred by controversies, including a short-lived stint with the New England Patriots in 2019 following his departure from the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Subsequently, Brown briefly played for the New England Patriots before being released amid allegations of misconduct. He later joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and won a Super Bowl with them in 2020.
However, his time with the Buccaneers came to an abrupt end in 2021 when he left the field during a game and was subsequently released from the team. Since then, he has not been part of any NFL roster.
