Update: Antonio Brown Pays $15,000 Toward Child Support After Arrest

Update: (Oct. 18, 2023): Looks like a little bit of jail time has encouraged Antonio Brown to pay his ex.

According to a report from TMZ, the ex-NFL player recently paid $15,000 of the $31,000 he allegedly owes Wiltrice Jackson – the mother of his 15-year-old daughter, Antanyiah – in child support. You may recall that he was arrested earlier this week for not keeping up with the payment schedule.

After spending a brief time behind bars, Brown was released on a $15,000 bond. Once freed, Brown went on a rant via IG live and accused the arresting officers of stealing money from him. In part, he said,

“Cracker pulled me over on Griffin…Cracker stole my money.”

He continued,

“I know you went home up a thousand…I’m home, n*gga. You ain’t stop sh*t, n*gga.”

Original Story: (Oct. 16, 2023): Antonio Brown just can’t seem to stay out of trouble.

According to reports, over the weekend the former NFL player was arrested in Florida after failing to pay child support. Authorities reportedly detained Antonio Brown, 35, outside of his home in Dania Beach. He was booked in a Broward County jail “around midnight” on Sunday (Oct. 15) and was soon released on a $15,000 bond. Allegedly, he owes Wiltrice Jackson – the mother of his 15-year-old daughter, Antanyiah – around $31,000 in backed child support.

Jackson recently spoke with TMZ and made it very clear she wants her ex to face consequences for allegedly being an absentee father. She said,

“Because, right now, he’s making a mockery out of the judge, out of everything, because he feels like he’s untouchable.”

Jackson noted that she would love for Antonio Brown to be “an involved father” to their track-and-field star daughter but, unfortunately, that’s not the case. She added,

“By him having a daughter like an athlete like her, you would think he’d be in her corner to support her.”

As previously reported, in August, after the arrest warrant was initially issued for the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player, Brown posted a video getting a full body massage online to seemingly show he was unbothered.

Catching up on his child support payments isn’t the only debt lingering over Brown’s head. In September he was reportedly “found liable on all counts” after selling a man a fake Richard Mille watch for $160,000.
