Former NFL superstar Antonio Brown is once again making waves on the internet for all the wrong reasons. Brown, who last played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has been in the news because of his X account and controversial tweets he has made on the social media platform over the last few days.
After Brown seemingly targeted pop star Taylor Swift with an obscene AI-generated image, the former footballer has now turned his attention to actress Sydney Sweeney. Brown recently tweeted in response to one of Sweeney’s comments about video games, and X users could not ignore his attempted flirting. Here is what Antonio Brown said to Sydney Sweeney.
Antonio Brown Flirted With Sydney Sweeney On Social Media
Antonio Brown retired from playing professional football in 2023, and despite returning to the sport as a practice squad member for the Baltimore Ravens, he has remained on the sidelines ever since. However, Brown has seemingly found another way of staying in the spotlight through his unfiltered comments on social media.
Most recently, Brown replied to a tweet about actress Sydney Sweeney, which caught the attention of most social media users. In an interview, Sweeney spoke about her love for video games and stated that she enjoyed playing The Simpsons: Hit & Run with her brother while growing up.
Brown seemingly took the opportunity to send a flirty message to Sweeney by tweeting the following:
I’m up for a game of Hit & Run #CTESPN https://t.co/gVdjWLziKD

X users were surprised by Brown’s comment, and most of them found it hilarious that the former footballer was openly targeting Sweeney over social media. Some users also speculated that Brown might have sold his account or is simply making provoking tweets for the sake of generating more views and ad revenue. However, this wasn’t the first time Brown’s tweets caused a stir online.
Antonio Brown Previously Posted an Inappropriate AI Image of Taylor Swift
Sydney Sweeney seems to be just one of the latest famous women to be targeted by Brown, who has been on an upward trend of making controversial tweets and comments online. Before turning his attention to Sweeney, Brown also targeted singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.
Brown first spoke about Swift on his X account by responding to a fan account of Swift. Brown replied to a question from the fan account with the words “Body like a Saltine Cracker,” likely alluding to Swift’s physical appearance.
The former NFL superstar later took things further by sharing an NSFW AI-generated photo of himself kissing Swift. The inappropriate image not only stunned X users but it was also deemed worthy of getting the former footballer sued.
X users also argued that Brown could be canceled or targeted by Swift’s fans online. Brown’s post mentioning Swift came after he reportedly posted a series of edited photos of his rival Tom Brady’s ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, on social media. After Brown was done targeting Bündchen and Swift, it seems he shifted his focus to Sweeney as the next aim of his unfiltered social media comments.
