Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown pleaded guilty in Miami on Friday to a reduced charge of aggravated assault with a firearm, avoiding prison time for a 2025 shooting outside a celebrity boxing match. As reported by multiple outlets including Yahoo Sports, Fox News, and ESPN, Judge Marisa Tinkler Mendez sentenced him to three years of probation. Fox News added that the agreement also mandates weekly counseling sessions. While Yahoo Sports noted that Brown had initially faced an attempted second-degree murder charge, his legal counsel described the agreement to that outlet as "an offer we couldn't refuse."
