Antonio Brown Says He Talked to Jon Gruden Recently and Leaves Door Open for Raiders Return

Antonio Brown's exit from the Oakland Raiders was about as disastrous as imaginable, and soon thereafter the embattled wideout found himself out of the league following a short stint with the Patriots.

Well, seeking another chance on the gridiron, AB revealed Monday that he's been in contact with Raiders head coach Jon Gruden and that he hasn't ruled out a potential return to the team, via Complex's "Load Management" podcast.

Brown also cited that Tom Brady joining up with the Raiders in Vegas would further his interest in a return to the Silver and Black, though it remains to be seen how eager GM Mike Mayock would be to see him back with the organization.

The 31-year-old has stirred up quite the controversy on social media since his exit from the league, but it seeking to make amends and return to football. He's confident the Raiders will be willing to give him another shot.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin denied interest in Brown, but that doesn't mean the former All-Pro won't land back on his feet elsewhere.
