Antonio Brown targeted many during a Sunday morning tweetstorm, including NFL Hall-of-Famer-turned-broadcaster Shannon Sharpe.

Sharpe has been critical of Brown's behavior during the latter's brief stints with the Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots. Seemingly addressing the former tight end's criticisms in one of several pointed tweets, Brown cited a sexual assault accusation levied against Sharpe in 2010.

Sharpe soon hit back, comparing Brown to rapper 6ix9ine, who has tied fellow rappers to gang affiliations while testifying in federal court.
