Buccaneers receiver Antonio Brown accused of using fake COVID-19 vaccine card

I guess it was only a matter of time before Antonio Brown found himself in hot water once again.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ controversial wide receiver is being accused by his former personal chef of reaching out to him over the summer to get his hands on a fake COVID-19 vaccinated card to show to the team as proof of vaccination.

The chef, named Steven Ruiz, took a screenshot of Brown’s girlfriend Cydney Moreau reaching out to him for a fake vaccine card and posted it on his social media.

The Buccaneers have since released a statement, denying the allegations against their star receiver:

“After an extensive educational process conducted throughout our organization this past offseason highlighting the benefits of the COVID-19 vaccines, we received completed vaccination cards from all Tampa Bay Buccaneers players and submitted the required information to the NFL through the established process in accordance with league policy.”

“All vaccination cards were reviewed by Buccaneers personnel and no irregularities were observed.”

The NFL will oversee the matter moving forward.
