Antonio Brown has been all over social media all season. From bets with locker room celebrations to broadcasting his post-game interviews on Facebook Live, he provides his fans with a lot of behind-the-scenes access.
That was no different for the post season, as yesterday, after an 18-16 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, he was celebrating in the locker room on Facebook Live.
However, there was some hilariously ironic moments in the video that led to him removing the recording from social media. Of course, nothing is ever fully deleted from the internet and you can see the video below. In it, Mike Tomlin is giving a rallying speech for next week’s game against the Patriots. At one point he says “We spotted those a**holes a day and a half”, in reference to how their game was moved.
Also, in the speech, he mentions to “Keep a low profile”, and someone else yells to “Keep calm on social media.” This video accomplished neither of those goals, which is probably why Brown deleted it.
WARNING: NSFW Language.
Tom Brady never saw the video, but he was informed of it on his weekly call in with The Kirk & Callahan Show on WEEI. He had these two things to say:
“That’s against our team policy, so I don’t think that would go over well with our coach.”
“Every coach has a different style. Our coach, he’s been in the league for 42 years and he’s pretty old school. He’s not into social media and I think he lets everyone know that. I think our team has a policy, we don’t show anything that should be private because he feels when we are inside our stadium, inside the walls, there has to be a degree of privacy that we have. What’s done in the locker room should stay in the locker room.”
Locker rooms are pretty rowdy places, so we’re sure many coaches (Including Bill Belichick) have said worse than this. But what Brady is saying that in Belichick’s locker room, no one would ever be on Facebook Live.
That sounds pretty accurate considering Belichick’s usual demeanor with any kind of media.
