GLENDALE, ARIZONA - AUGUST 15: Wide receiver Antonio Brown #84 and quarterback Derek Carr #4 of the Oakland Raiders talk on the sidelines during the first half of the NFL preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium on August 15, 2019 in Glendale, Arizona.

AB targets former teammates Carr, JuJu in latest Twitter rant

Free-agent receiver Antonio Brown took aim at a couple of NFL players in a pair of tweets posted on Monday.

First, Brown appeared to suggest that former Oakland Raiders teammate Derek Carr isn't likely to remain with the team next season - the franchise's first in its new home of Las Vegas:

Carr's 2019 stats were the best of his six-year pro career, but Oakland still missed the playoffs and the team can save $19 million of the pivot's $21.5-million cap hit by cutting him before next season.

Brown also seemed to mock former Pittsburgh Steelers teammate JuJu Smith-Schuster, who endured an injury-filled and ultimately forgettable season after being elevated to the No. 1 role following Brown's departure:

Smith-Schuster finished the season with a career-low 552 yards receiving as the Steelers posted an 8-8 record.
