Brandon Marshall Says Antonio Brown’s Antics Are Cool … For Now

Antonio Brown‘s crazy antics are cool now while he’s one of the best players in the NFL … but that ish won’t fly forever … so says Brandon Marshall, who tells TMZ Sports he’s been in AB’s shoes.

Brown’s off-season has been filled with turmoil … from helmet issues to feuds with his old teammates (lookin’ at you Big Ben).

Marshall says that’s not the biggest deal in the world right now … but it could be a huge problem in a few years when AB’s no longer the hottest receiver in the game.

“When you’re a star and you play at the level he plays at, you can get away with things like that.”

BM continued …  ”When you become a distraction or if you create drama, they’ll deal with it when you’re balling. But, when you’re not, you’re the first guy to get shipped out.”

Marshall — who played 13 seasons in the NFL and made 6 Pro Bowls — understands AB … ’cause he admittedly had his fair share of drama throughout his career.

“I have an interesting perspective ’cause I’ve been on both ends, right? I’ve been a guy that created headlines and distraction at times. And the second half of my career, I was the guy that was trying to be the glue and keep things together.”
