Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown was arrested in Florida on a warrant for outstanding child support payments, according to the Broward County Sheriff's Department. The warrant was put out for Brown's arrest last week, court documents showed, for allegedly failing to abide by a child support agreement with Wiltrice Jackson, the mother of his eldest daughter. Brown has since been released from custody after posting a $15,000 bond, police told NBC News.
In 2022, Florida police issued an arrest warrant for Brown over domestic battery allegations. The charges were later dropped. He has not played in the NFL since January of 2022, when he was released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after ripping his jersey off and storming off the field during the teams' game against the New York Jets. While playing for the Buccaneers, he was suspended for three games over faking his Covid-19 vaccination status in 2021.
