Ex-NFL star Antonio Brown reacts with viral "Homelander milk GIF" to Sydney Sweeney’s bold, see-through gown at recent event

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown, known for both his talent on the field and his bold personality, has been active online since retiring in March 2023. Over his 12-season career with the Steelers, Patriots, and Buccaneers, Brown made a name for himself both on and off the field.

Recently, he drew attention for his reactions to celebrity events and playful digs at current NFL figures. Most recently, Brown reacted to Sydney Sweeney’s daring outfit at Variety’s 2025 Power of Women event.

Antonio Brown takes a dig at Sydney Sweeney

On Thursday, he reacted to actress Sydney Sweeney’s look at Variety’s 2025 Power of Women event by sharing a GIF from Amazon Prime’s The Boys, showing “Homelander” smelling a carton of milk. At the event, Sweeney, 28, reflected on her outfit and what it means to define yourself in the public eye.

“I know what it feels like … to have people define you before you’ve had a chance to define yourself,” Sweeney said. “I know what it feels like to have to prove that you deserve to be here, to be seen, to be taken seriously.

Every one of us has our own fight. Strength doesn’t look loud sometimes, and sometimes it’s about getting up again and again, no matter who is watching.”

Antonio Brown takes a swipe at Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel

On Friday, Antonio Brown turned his social media attention to the Miami Dolphins’ rough NFL season.

The former wide receiver shared a photoshopped Spirit Halloween packet featuring Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel. The mock costume called him a “Clueless Head Coach” and included capri joggers, glasses, awkward press conferences, and the team’s 2-7 record. Miami has struggled this season, and on Friday, the Dolphins fired general manager Chris Grier after their 28-6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday.

A career of highs and memorable stats

Antonio Brown started his NFL career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, playing nine seasons and becoming one of the league’s top receivers.

In 2019, he joined the New England Patriots but played just one game due to off-field issues. He then signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020 and helped the team win the 2021 Super Bowl. Over 12 NFL seasons, Brown totaled 12,291 receiving yards and 83 touchdowns on 928 catches, plus 128 rushing yards on 35 carries.

He made seven Pro Bowls and led the league in receiving touchdowns in 2018. Even after retiring in March 2023, Brown stays in the spotlight with his outspoken online presence, sharing everything from playful celebrity reactions to sharp takes on NFL coaching and team performances.Also read: 'No one should fuc**ng be me for Halloween": Kylie Kelce warns fans sternly while Jason Kelce breaks down her signature style
