I feel sorry for Antonio Brown. He\u2019s talented but he needs help. The NFL \u2026 we\u2019re not doing him any favors if we keep signing him and keep rewarding this behavior. Don\u2019t sign him until he gets some help,\u201d Dungy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/antonio-brown-plea-super-bowl-champion-coach\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Brown has had a career filled with ups-and-downs, spending nine years with the Pittsburgh Steelers before playing one game in the 2019 season with the New England Patriots.
