Antonio Brown's absence Monday not related to relationship with team

Updating a previous report about Pittsburgh Steelers Antonio Brown being absent from team meetings on Monday, the wide receiver's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, shed some light on the situation on Tuesday afternoon. Rosenhaus stated, “Antonio had a personal matter. I talked to the team about it. His issue was unrelated to the tweet or his relationship with the team." (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Brown's "trade me let's find out" tweet on Monday was blown out of proportion and mostly taken out of context, which set off speculation that he was upset with the franchise. This does not appear to be an issue for Brown or his fantasy owners going forward. Expect him to be out there in Week 3 when the Steelers take on the Buccaneers.
