Antonio Brown is widely considered to be the best receiver in football. Even recently, several media outlets have been comparing him to Jerry Rice. After eight years in the league, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide out has made some memorable catches. We’ll take a look at Brown’s top five catches so far.
Antonio Brown is a special player. Duh, we all know that already. His on-the-field performance and talent combined with his off-the-field dedication to working out and being prepared for Sunday afternoons has given him the well deserved title of the best receiver in football. Sure, talk about Julio Jones and Odell Beckham Jr., but “AB” is the best there is in the game right now.
So while we wait for the 2018 season to arrive, let’s take a look back at some of Brown’s best catches in his career. He’s made way more than five, or even twenty for that matter, that left our jaws on the floor, so picking a top five is insanely difficult.
5. Superman Cape (2015 vs New England)
This catch is a great example of Antonio Brown’s determination on the field. It’s plays like this that give every Steelers fan the utmost confidence that AB will catch anything. The fact that this catch is made against Malcom Butler just makes it all the more impressive. Brown was strong enough to wear Butler like a cape and come away with the ball.
