[Phinnster]

Think they'll need to do better than this if they want to replace Antonio :

The Ottawa Redblacks have released receiver Diontae Spencer so he can pursue an opportunity with the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers.

Spencer, 26, scored seven touchdowns and hauled in 1,007 receiving yards last season, his second with the Redblacks.

He also set the CFL's single-game yardage record against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2017, racking up 496 all-purpose yards.

The Redblacks announced Spencer's release Friday afternoon, shortly after the Steelers revealed in a tweet that they'd signed the four-year CFL veteran.


Here's his wiki:

Say it ain't so...

Welcome to Pittsburgh Dionte..Please show up for gameday.

On a sidebar, assuming Brown indeed heads elsewhere, can you imagine the reception when he comes back to Heinz? It will make Barry Bond's return will seem like the ticker tape parade in NYC after WWII.

At least they are being pro active and I would bet this is more to do with the lower receivers and NOT Antonio Brown. DHB and Hunter best get ready because one of them is gone come spring. This guy could be blind-folded and still put up DHB numbers for less than 1/2 price.





Salute the nation

So he was let go from his now former employer because of a social media posting by his new employer?

They had to free him from his contact so he could move on.

Oh no all that is good... Blackish, BET channel, Miss Black America it isn't racist unless there is a white spinoff. Like Redwhites, Whitish, Miss White America, or WET the White Entertainment Television, or White history month....

A CFL 2nd tier wr isn't going to fix this team. The team is going down as Tomlin fiddles.
