After a successful debut with the New England Patriots, Antonio Brown seemed to be missing in action, as nobody appeared to know what was going on with the controversial NFL star.
However, he got some good news when authorities in Pennsylvania told Britney Taylor, his alleged rape victim, that they were not moving forward with criminal charges.
Since the alleged sexual assaults took place in Pittsburgh, they could have gone after the athlete.
The D.A. stated: “It appears there is a statute of limitations issue in moving forward with any inquiry involving the Allegheny County allegation mentioned in the lawsuit.”
The NFL has met with Taylor for their investigation, and it is not clear if Brown could face any punishment. He is still expected to play this weekend against the New York Jets. Last Sunday, Brown took an interesting approach after the game.

Reports indicate that his locker had been completely cleared out — nameplate included — before the press was even allowed in the locker room.
Brown’s recent rape lawsuit may have been the main factor behind his absence, but there has been ongoing speculation among his fans regarding the possible reason.
The only thing observers had heard from Brown was a strange explanation about the current situation on his Instagram profile, which some have described as rambling.
The wide receiver pointed out that he needed to stay focused and prevent the devil from bringing him down.
A few supporters appear to be worried about the player’s current state of mind and overall wellbeing, while on the other hand, others have speculated that he might just be trying to sweep the issue under the rug by acting the way he does.
In any case, Brown will likely remain the subject of a lot of negative attention for quite some time in the near future.
Most fans remain hopeful that Brown will manage to pull through in the end, as he has received a lot of flak over his allegations, and they might have a lasting impact on his career if it even continues at this point.
While Brown has not made any more serious statements on his situation, many of his fans have continued to support him and seem to be actively wishing him a fast recovery from his legal troubles.
As for Taylor, she got married to Kristin Owens on September 14 at the Mississippi Boulevard Christian Church in Tennessee. The ceremony took place four days after she filed her civil lawsuit against Brown.
