Antonio Brown arrested for failure to pay child support.

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown was arrested for failing to pay child support, with his former partner claiming he owes close to $31,000. Brown, who has a history of legal issues, was released after posting a $15,000 bond.

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown found himself in legal trouble once again after being arrested outside his home on Sunday. The arrest came after a warrant was issued over an allegation that Brown had failed to pay child support, as reported by the Broward County Sheriff's Department.

The Miami-Dade Police Department confirmed that the warrant was issued by the court due to the outstanding payments. Subsequently, a writ of bodily attachment was filed against Brown, granting authorities the power to arrest him for civil contempt. However, Brown was able to secure his release by posting a $15,000 bond, according to multiple sources.

Brown's former partner, Wiltrice Jackson, expressed her frustration with the situation, stating that he owes nearly $31,000 in child support. She emphasized her desire for his arrest, believing that he is disregarding the judge's authority and acting as if he is above the law.

Prior to his legal troubles, Brown enjoyed a successful career in the NFL. He played for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 2010 to 2018, followed by a season with the New England Patriots and two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he won a Super Bowl in 2020. Brown was widely recognized as a top-tier wide receiver, earning Pro Bowl honors seven times and leading the league in touchdowns (2018), receptions (2014, 2015), and yardage (2014, 2017).

However, Brown's professional achievements were overshadowed by off-field controversies. In 2020, he was suspended by the NFL for eight games due to multiple violations of the personal conduct policy. Additionally, he reached a settlement in 2021 with a former trainer who had accused him of sexual assault.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers ultimately released Brown on January 6, 2022, following an incident during a game against the New York Jets. In the third quarter of that game, Brown abruptly left the field, removing his jersey and shoulder pads before running off shirtless. Since then, he has not played in the NFL.

Overall, Antonio Brown's career has been marked by both exceptional talent on the field and numerous controversies off the field. His recent arrest for failing to pay child support adds another chapter to his tumultuous journey in the public eye.
