It's not a secret that most NFL insiders know exactly what's going to happen around the league days before the moves actually go down, and nothing gets done without ESPN's Adam Schefter finding out first.
Schefter was the first to break the news that Antonio Brown was drawing a lot of interest from the Seattle Seahawks and plenty of other teams in the wake of his 8-game suspension near coming to an end.
And, while they were some doubts about that report as people were wary about Brown's desire to come back to the league and any team's willingness to deal with him right now, Schefter may have accidentally revealed that he's 100% coming back to the NFL.
ESPN's Adam Schefter Picks Up Antonio Brown On Fantasy Football
The thing is that one of Schefter's friends posted a pic of his Fantasy Football activity, showing that the respected insider actually picked up Brown on his league way before breaking the news of the Seahawks' interest in his services.
Considering how seriously people take their Fantasy Football leagues and that they're not going to just drop players and waste a move, that could be legit proof of Brown's imminent comeback to the league once he serves his 8-game suspension.
Pete Carroll Addresses The Rumors
Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll addressed the rumors of his team's interest in adding the veteran wideout, simply saying that the Seahawks' GM has always done a great job at giving Russell Wilson more weapons:
“We have endeavored to be in on everything that’s going on and [GM] John [Schneider] has done a marvelous job of always being tuned in to what’s happening. And this is no exception. So we’ll see what happens as we go forward,” Carroll said, as quoted by ClutchPoints.
There's no doubt that, when healthy, there aren't many defenders that could lockdown Antonio Brown. He's an athletic freak that has dominated the league for years now. Then again, that's when he's focused entirely on football.
