I changed the picture because AB is more notable for his Steelers career than Bucs career and since he is pretty much retired it would make more sense to show a picture from his prime and the team he was on for longer [[Special:Contributions/2603:7080:A03E:E800:6806:C209:6F41:E119|2603:7080:A03E:E800:6806:C209:6F41:E119]] ([[User talk:2603:7080:A03E:E800:6806:C209:6F41:E119|talk]]) 18:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Brown has fathered five children with multiple women.<ref>https://steelerswire.usatoday.com/2017/04/18/antonio-brown-has-a-bit-of-baby-mama-drama/</ref>
After reviewing the source, I don’t think this information is credible. It is diminishing to Brown’s career, and I don’t think we should include it unless it’s confirmed by Brown, or it is supported by something other than a rant on Instagram by some person. Let me know! [[User:Apoorv Chauhan|Apoorv Chauhan]] ([[User talk:Apoorv Chauhan|talk]]) 02:47, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
:This information is credible. USA Today is not the only source available. Brown has confirmed that he has five children with three mothers. Please stop deleting relevant and accurate information. If you want to correct something, then please correct it and cite your sources. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:WikiHogan654|WikiHogan654]] ([[User talk:WikiHogan654#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/WikiHogan654|contribs]]) 05:01, 21 November 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

In the source provided, it blatantly based its claims off of the Instagram post I mentioned earlier, which is why I questioned the credibility of your source. Furthermore, it is '''your''' responsibility to find accurate sources about '''your''' edits. I still researched this, and I did find this<ref>https://heavy.com/sports/2018/11/antonio-brown-kids-children-how-many/</ref> to be the most credible. I see this has already been cited by someone else in the article. Just make sure to provide accurate sources. Thanks!

== Error in Personal life section ==

This new addition contains an error, an inconsistency, and could be better-worded:

CURRENT: "On January 3rd 2019, Brown took part on the first season of the American version of The Masked Singer. His mask that he competed in was "The Hippo", singing "My Prerogative" by Bobby Brown. He was eliminated in the first episode."

PROPOSED: "On January 2, 2019, Brown appeared as a competitor on the first season of the American version of The Masked Singer.

== Failed Buffalo trade ==
Should info about the failed Buffalo trade be added to the article? [[User:Jusgtr|Jusgtr]] ([[User talk:Jusgtr|talk]]) 04:17, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

No. Rarely is a failed trade significant enough to merit even a passing mention on Wikipedia, and in this case it definitely doesn’t merit that. [[User:Mrbeastmodeallday|Mrbeastmodeallday]] ([[User talk:Mrbeastmodeallday|talk]]) 06:46, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

== Trade to Buffalo via Oakland ==

There has been a verbal agreement according to Adam Schefter that sends Antonio Brown to the Oakland Raiders for 3rd and 5th round picks. Brown also gets to restructure his contract.[[User:Wadeentz99|Wadeentz99]] ([[User talk:Wadeentz99|talk]]) 05:47, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Notable yes. But we try to keep a more recent picture on a player page. Besides, his face isn't really visible in either photo. May want to check around with this. Who knows what's out there. Bringingthewood (talk) 21:32, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
