Antonio Brown was very quick to respond to his arrest warrant for child support debt to his baby mama. Moreover, the football and music star posted a picture of his payment to his Instagram Story just hours after that story initially broke. As such, it appears as though this legal issue might be resolved more quickly than many fans probably expected. After all, Brown faced a lot of controversy over the past few years, whether it's in a professional, legal, or social sense. However, he still faces other roadblocks in the legal system than don't necessarily paint this as a swift victory for him.

For example, Antonio Brown recently got into an altercation with security during an Albany Empire game for the National Arena League. Apparently, he went onto the field and guards promptly asked him to exit the premises. In some social media clips that went around, Brown argued with officials and told them to "make [him] get off." Still, as he walked off the game, he made time to say hello to fans on the sidelines and greet those eager for a look at the former Steelers receiver.

Regardless of his other troubles, this baby mama drama could've landed him in some really hot water. In fact, his quick payment is probably a sing of just how much pressure he faced from legal authorities, recognizing this wasn't the type of headline to simply brush off or let pass over. One instance that Brown seemingly hasn't responded to is a $1.1 million lawsuit from Shuki International, a celebrity jeweler that claimed he owes him money for a jewelry collection he never paid for.

Meanwhile, the NFL talent recently reflected on his infamous last game in the league, during which he simply walked off the sidelines. According to Brown, a lot of factors played into his frustrated and shocking decision. Some of these are disagreements with Tom Brady and coaches dismissing an injury he had during the game. Maybe we'll never know the full story, but we'll certainly be hearing more from this controversial figure in culture. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Antonio Brown.
