After Making $80 Million In NFL, Antonio Brown Files For Bankruptcy With Just $50,000 In Assets

After filing for bankruptcy, ex-NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown may lose his extravagant properties, including an $11.3 million home. The former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player owes almost $3 million to eight creditors, totaling nearly $24 million. According to the filing, Brown only has $50,000 in assets despite earning $80 million across his entire NFL career.

Brown, 35, currently owns three properties in his home state of Florida. His main home is an $8 million mansion in Fort Lauderdale boasting 18,000 square feet and 12 bedrooms. Brown’s mansion also features a home theater, gym, elevator and synagogue. In 2018, Brown said he wanted a synagogue on his property so his Jewish friends could have a space for prayer.

Brown owns two other properties, priced at $1.8 million and $2.9 million. All three of his homes come to a total of around $11 million. Brown also previously owned a mansion in Pennsylvania, sold in 2021.

Brown’s bankruptcy comes after his extensive history of legal issues. Brown has faced numerous charges and arrest warrants for assault, including sexual assault and rape. Police put out a warrant for Brown’s arrest after he failed to pay child support to ex-girlfriend Wiltrice Jackson. Brown has denied any sexual assault or misconduct and claimed there was no arrest warrant.

Recently, Brown was under fire after sharing numerous inappropriate social media posts about WNBA star Caitlin Clark. In October 2022, Brown was seen exposing himself to a woman while on vacation in Dubai.
