Antonio Brown said he's "looking forward to rejoining teammates" after losing his helmet grievance with the NFL.

Brown was never going to win his grievance. He's still dealing with a frostbite injury, but it sounds like he plans to rejoin the team when he's healthy enough to practice. Even with Brown now unlikely to holdout, he has no shortage of injury and off-field concerns. Brown is hard to trust at his second-round ADP.

Antonio Brown is not practicing because of his helmet.

Raiders GM Mike Mayock said while the team supports Brown, they've "exhausted" all options regarding his helmet and that they need to know if Brown is "all in or all out." The Raiders have to be extremely frustrated with the situation, but Brown has been as unpredictable as it gets for years. Mayock is hopeful that Brown will be back with the team by Week 1 but did not guarantee that would happen. It's worth noting that the Raiders believe Brown's feet are healthy enough to practice fully, so it's just a matter of when, and if, Brown wants to suit up. Stay tuned.

Pro Football Talk reports Antonio Brown will pick a helmet soon and is nearing an endorsement deal.

Brown just lost his second helmet grievance of the offseason, but it sounds like he's almost ready to move on. He just might have to secure the bag first with some sponsorship dollars. When it comes to football, there's no way Brown's chemistry with Derek Carr is where it should be after all of the missed time this offseason, but that shouldn't prevent Brown from being one of the most targeted receivers in the NFL. Consider Brown a risky WR1/2 to start the season.

Don't just draft, DOMINATE: With all of Brown's preseason antics, find out where he's ranked.

I hope you're right but I doubt it happens.
He sits week one and can't be around the team but we'll see what happens after that.
