No, Vikings shouldn’t sign Antonio Brown, even with Floyd Mayweather warranty

Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. is issuing an impressive offer to all NFL teams: Sign Antonio Brown for $20 million, and if he fails to make it through the entire season without issue, the team will be fully reimbursed.

That might be a fun venture for some other desperate team throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, but for first-year general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and first-year head coach Kevin O’Connell, it’s an unnecessary headache with possibly catastrophic consequences.

It doesn’t need to be said because the entire scenario sounds completely ludicrous. But I’m still saying it anyway: terrible idea!
