Antonio Brown claims Snapchat account was hacked after embarrassing leak of explicit photos
It's another one of those days where Antonio Brown is in the news for an unpleasant reason. The former NFL wide receiver once again made noise on social media after allegedly posting an explicit video on his Snapchat account on Monday.
He then went to his Twitter account to say that he was hacked and was working with the Snapchat support team to get it back.
Here's what Antonio Brown tweeted:
"My snap chat page has been hacked. Working with @snapchatsupport to get this fix asap."

Brown, however, has been through this before.
Late last year, Brown posted an image of Brady texting him and allaying his fears, asking the WR to get his act together. Brown later claimed he hadn't done the same, insinuating that the message was leaked somehow.
All things considered, however, Brown's been a headache for Tom Brady and several others.
And while his talent is undeniable, no team seems to want to sign him.
Antonio Brown hung up on @druski after telling him to apologize to Tom Brady:
“CTE is a real thing, but he’s doing numbers with that song. A win is a win.” 🤣 https://t.co/QnD4XsOZab
A prime example was his mid-game exit from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which appears to have been the final straw in his NFL career.
Since Brown is no longer in the league, he's been in the headlines for other reasons, most of which have been controversial. These included posting personal videos, bad-mouthing Tom Brady and reportedly being wanted by the police.
It's certainly a disappointing sequence of events for a player who could have been enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Antonio Brown trending for all the wrong reasons since his NFL departure
Perhaps the greatest example of what Antonio Brown lost in the previous two years is his friendship with Tom Brady.
Brady is the NFL's greatest ever quarterback and recruited him to two different teams when Brown's stock was low.
Brown and Brady joined forces in New England in 2019 and again a year later when Brady moved to Tampa Bay. They won a Super Bowl together that season, but AB's famous shirtless exit against the New York Jets had him released during the next campaign.

Ever since, Brown has been in the media criticizing Brady for many different things, enjoying the quarterback's struggles on and off the field.
Brady has pleaded the fifth and kept himself out of the equation. However, they're almost certainly no longer friends after Brown took multiple shots at Brady for seemingly no conceivable reason.
A Snapchat picture of Antonio Brown alongside Gisele Bundchen was posted once the Brazilian supermodel announced her divorce from Brady. This became an ongoing theme on Brown's social media accounts, and only stopped recently.
It is thus that Brown's social media activity has left many fans appalled, and this latest stunt is likely not the end of the story.
