Antonio Brown says Buccaneers fired him for having a painful ankle injury before he left mid-game
CNN
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown said Wednesday he was fired "for having a painful injury" during a game Sunday.
Brown, who could be seen upset on the sideline during a game against the New York Jets, ultimately removed his uniform and shoulder pads, waved to the crowd and walked off the field mid-game.
In a statement, Brown said he had relented to pressure "directly from my coach" to play despite an injured ankle, getting a painkiller injection beforehand from the staff to help deal with the injury.

White House tries to calm industry worries over migrant workers amid aggressive deportation campaign
Senior Trump officials and the president himself have grappled with the consequences of their immigration crackdown against a key portion of the workforce: migrant workers.

Lawyers for Kilmar Abrego Garcia on Wednesday continued their push to keep their civil case against the Trump administration alive, requesting to amend the lawsuit to include what they describe as the “torture and mistreatment” he experienced at El Salvador’s notorious mega prison, where he was wrongfully deported and held earlier this year.
