-- Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown and his attorney, Sean Burstyn, said Tuesday they intend to pursue legal action against the team for releasing Brown after he said he was too injured to continue playing against the New York Jets earlier this month and claimed coach Bruce Arians ignored his pleas to not reenter the game.Appearing on HBO's "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel," Burstyn said they will pursue money for Brown's ankle surgery and money they feel he is owed by the NFL's collective bargaining agreement. "Yes. If he was physically able to continue playing."When Arians was told that Brown denied he was upset about targets, Arians said, "The players know the truth."Brown claimed that the Bucs offered him $200,000 to sit on the sideline and commit himself to mental health treatment, which Brown refused to do."These guys at the Tampa Bay Bucs tried to make an agreement with me to give me $200,000 to go to the crazy house so these guys could look like they know what they were talking about," Brown said.Burstyn said Licht told him in writing twice, "Do not spin this any other way."When asked if he believed he needed mental help of any kind, Brown said, "I have mental wealth, man.
