This offseason, the Miami Dolphins re-signed wideout Braxton Berrios to a one-year, $2.5 million deal, keeping him with the AFC East squad for a second consecutive year. Berrios, the boyfriend to famed social media personality Alix Earle, has grown a substantial following in recent years, although also being an All-Pro in 2021. In an interview late last month, the now extremely popular Berrios joined the Hot Mess Pod, giving his insights on the lavish lifestyle of NFL players.
Berrios emphasized that the majority of players in committed relationships do not partake in adultery when on road trips. However, on Tuesday, former NFL superstar turned controversial media character Antonio Brown clowned Berrios for his comments. Brown has long been a highly controversial member of social media, routinely using foul language and attacking current and former NFL players, including Berrios.

Being in a committed relationship or not sleeping around every week is usually applauded unless you’re Antonio Brown, formerly of the Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After Berrios said players do not have “girls in every city during the season” during a Hot Mess Pod appearance last week, Brown shared his two cents on the subject via Twitter on Tuesday.

The original tweet by aggregate account MLFootball received north of eight million views. However, in a quote tweet on Tuesday, Brown shattered the viewership numbers. Brown posted, “Speak for yourself, (expletive)” in response to Berrios’ week-old comment. Brown currently has six kids with three women while being the subject of a sexual assault case in 2019. A sexual misconduct accusation came to light against Brown that same year. Also of note, Brown has faced multiple domestic violence charges and a report of indecent exposure. The former Steelers standout has also failed to post child support throughout the past four years. Brown was arrested in 2023 for failing to pay $15 thousand in child support.
Berrios: Entering Second Season with Miami Dolphins
Braxton Berrios will return to the Miami Dolphins next fall after signing a one-year deal this offseason. Berrios, a standout for the Miami Hurricanes in college, landed with the New England Patriots as a sixth-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. After missing his rookie season due to injury, Berrios signed with the New York Jets in 2019, where he spent four seasons. During that stretch, the five-foot-nine wideout caught 107 passes for 1,085 yards and five touchdowns. However, thanks to his efforts as a returner, he earned All-Pro honors in his third season with the club. He led the NFL with 30.4 yards per kick return.
Berrios left New York for the Miami Dolphins in 2023, collecting 23 receptions, 238 yards, and one touchdown. He also returned 18 kicks and 23 punts. Berrios will compete with former Super Bowl champ Odell Beckham Jr. for an offensive role beside stars Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
