Antonio Brown has targeted Caitlin Clark again with more crass remarks on Twitter, after the WNBA star blocked him for his first round of vile posts about her.
The former NFL player, who has targeted Tom Brady with provocative posts in the past, caused outrage and offense this week but saying Clark ‘looks like she keeps it hairy’.
Brown returned again with more insults on Friday night, claiming Clark will get plastic surgery when she starts making more money through the WNBA.
He also posted a crass meme referring to Clark’s boyfriend before following up with a tweet seemingly addressing the outrage that said: ‘Cant be cancelled if you already cancelled.’
Hours later, he said Clark should play in the NBA instead of the women’s equivalent.

Ex-NFL player Brown appears to relish attempting to provoke stars on social media
Clark was first pick by the Indiana Pacers at the WNBA Draft after immense success at Iowa
‘I’ll say it again for the haters,’ he wrote. ‘Caitlin Clark should be a NBA Draft pick. Draft is weak. She is a generational talent This would be the year.’
Brown’s attacks have come amid a reporter sparking outrage for his tone in speaking to her at her first Indiana Fever press conference.
Indy Star Sports reporter Gregg Doyel imitated the former Iowa star’s celebratory heart-hands gesture before saying: ‘Start doing it to me and we’ll get along just fine.’
The quip sparked outrage online as Barstool Sports boss Dave Portnoy branded him a ‘sexist pervert’ – leading Doyel to apologize for the suggestive exchange.
‘Today in my uniquely oafish way, while welcoming @CaitlinClark22 to Indy, I formed my hands into her signature [hand heart emoji,’ Doyel groveled to Twitter on Wednesday.
‘My comment afterward was clumsy and awkward. I sincerely apologize. Please know my heart (literally and figuratively) was well-intentioned. I will do better.’
But amid the controversies, Clark has plenty to celebrate as well.
It emerged this week that she is set to sign an eight-figure deal with Nike that will land her a signature shoe.

Clark’s starting salary of $76,533 has been placed under scrutiny this week, too
Furthermore, when it emerged that she will be paid a salary of $76,535 for her first season in the WNBA, it prompted President Biden to discuss how women are paid in the sport.
‘Women in sports continue to push new boundaries and inspire us all,’ read a post on Biden’s X account. ‘But right now we’re seeing that even if you’re the best, women are not paid their fair share.
‘It’s time that we give our daughters the same opportunities as our sons and ensure women are paid what they deserve.’
WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert has since said that Clark’s salary will likely be closer to $500,000 once the WNBA season is done.
”[For a] CEO, do you just put the base pay in there? No, you put their bonus, you put their stock options, you put everything,’ Engelbert said at a CNBC Changemakers event, according to NJ.com.
‘Caitlin has the ability to make up to a half of a million dollars just in WNBA wages this year, so they’re just looking at a base, which is collectively bargained and [what is reported is] actually is low, because she’s the No. 1 pick.’
