Antonio Brown says he is better than abortion — and that critics “might catch cancer.”

The former NFL receiver went to social media Thursday to criticize three former players, including former Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., during a TikTok live stream in which Brown declared himself the greatest receiver of all time.

“I’ll slap Brandon Marshall,” Brown said. “Ask Ben Roethlisberger how many touchdowns he held me back from. You think I need a Hall of Fame award for you guys to know how great I am? I don’t need no awards. You can take the awards and shove it up your (bleep). I don’t need any credit. I’ve got straight cash. Don’t ever mention me with Odell Beckham. He’s a junkie. Don’t ever mention me with him. I don’t care, fam. It’s my chat.”

The clip did not show what specifically prompted Brown, who said he was not smoking, to call out Beckham, Marshall and Roethlisberger. Brown finished with 837 catches for 11,207 yards and 74 touchdowns during their time together with Roethlisberger before being traded to the Oakland Raiders.

In another clip from the same livestream, Brown dismissed critics who question whether he’s the best receiver ever.

“I like JSN (Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba),” Brown said. “He’s a great player but no player was better than me. Don’t ever say anyone is better than me in my chat. If you ever come say someone is better than me in my chat, you might catch cancer. Nobody is better than me fam. I’m better than abortion. Abortion comes through for you 99.9%. I’m like that same percentage.”

Brown’s last NFL season was in 2021, when he walked off the field during a Tampa Bay Buccaneers game against the Jets. He is currently facing an attempted murder charge stemming from a 2025 shooting incident in Miami.
