Steelers | Antonio Brown won’t be cut, could be traded

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown will not be released this offseason, but team owner Art Rooney did not rule out the possibility of trading the star receiver.

Footballguys View: Brown has not been in contract with the team since being deactivated for the Week 17 game. It sounds like this is headed for divorce, even though it would be painful for the Steelers salary cap. There is a roster bonus of $2.5 million due on March 17, so we might see him traded before then. Trading the veteran receiver would cost the Steelers $20.2 million against the 2019 salary cap.
