Antonio Brown, the controversial NFL player and short-lived owner of the Albany Empire, was taken into custody on Sunday night for unpaid child support. 

Sports Illustrated reports Brown was arrested as he was getting into a cab around midnight outside his Dania Beach, Florida home. He was taken to jail for a short time and released on a $15,000 bond. 

Brown allegedly owes over $30,000 in unpaid child support to his ex, Wiltrice Jackson, and their daughter.

In 2023, Brown became an owner in the Albany Empire arena football team, but the team was kicked out mid season after they didn't pay their dues to the National Arena League.
