But Bengals' teammate Adam Jones thought Brown was faking it.
"Man, Antonio Brown was not hurt. I know he was faking it. Go back and look at the play. If you go back and slow-motion the play, you tell me that Vontaze [Burfict] hit him in the head. Or did his shoulder pad barely touch him?"
He even said Brown deserved "a Grammy Award" for acting, which ... yeah.
Jones *did* say he'd apologize if Brown ended up missing the Steelers' next playoff game.
