Steelers WR Brown ranked 8th on NFL top 100
Steelers receiver Antonio Brown was voted as the eighth-best player in NFL Network's top 100 players of 2015. The top 10 players were revealed Wednesday night.
Brown, who led the league in receptions (129) and receiving yards (1,698) to go with 13 touchdowns, finished two spots behind Detroit's Calvin Johnson.
"My number's 84. 8x4 = 32. 32 teams looked past me. Every time I go out there, it's motivation," Brown said during his segment on the show.
