Brown wants to wear the helmet he prefers, not one of the helmets that league rules mandate, league sources said. Brown believes the new certified helmet protrudes out and interferes with his vision as he tries to catch the football.

The Raiders have been sending Brown other approved helmets to wear, but at this time, he is not interested in wearing any of them.


The helmet that Brown is comfortable in and wore throughout his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers -- believed to be the Schutt Air Advantage helmet, which the company has discontinued making -- is no longer certified by the National Operating Committee for Standards and Athletic Equipment.

Look I don't love change and when I get used to something I usually stick with it but my goodness what a baby.

The NFL better not give in an inch to this guy. He wears the helmet he's suppose to or the door can hit his ass on the way out for all I care.

That's my 20m dollar WR!
He's doing a fine job representing WR group in the league.

The mental whack job belongs in a padded room wearing a straight jacket.

Rumor has him talking to the Texans. If we pick him up after trading d-hop due to contract and attitude then BOB has lost the last shed of credibility he had left

That said, I want to get him because he can help if his mind is right, and if not, I don’t have high hopes for this season anyways

And, as a Cowboy fan I hope the bridesmaids of the State of Texas gets their wish !! Hope you get him for a few weeks.

Straight Drama Queen! You never take personal discussions between you and a coach and secretly tape them, and then publicly display those conversations. Especially if it's just harmless meaningless stuff that's just private info. You lose trust quick and reveal yourself to be a bi#$%. I would take a dude back that committed a shop lifting crime, then a guy who erodes lockerroom chemistry and team unity.

I hope the Ravens use their common sense and do not consider signing AB.

Houston has a collection of the most injury prone wr's I've ever seen. AB might be a huge diva/d bag, but he might be someone worth gambling on out of pure necessity.

If AB joins the Texans, Devin Wade is going to throw for 5000 yards. You heard it here first

I give it one month before he announces a comeback only to realize there's still no team interested in him.
