Report: Raiders’ Brown files second grievance against NFL over helmet - Sportsnet.ca

Antonio Brown’s off-season melodrama took another turn Monday.

Shortly after losing a grievance against the NFL over the type of helmet he’d be allowed to wear this season, the Oakland Raiders star wide receiver has filed a second complaint against the league, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Source: #Raiders WR Antonio Briwn has filed another grievance against the NFL, arguing that he should be afforded the same right provided to other NFL players to have a 1-year grace period to phase out his helmet in 2019 season. He claims the NFL is arbitrarily applying rules.

In his latest grievance, Brown argues he should be afforded a one-year grace period to phase out his helmet, the Schutt Air Advantage, which he has worn throughout his NFL career.

Brown returned to Raiders’ training camp Monday morning after missing practice Sunday while working to try and find a new helmet he’s comfortable using.
