Former NFL cornerback Brandon Browner has a bone to pick with the New England Patriots following the benching of Malcolm Butler in Super Bowl LII.

Browner, who spent the 2014 season with the Patriots, lashed out at head coach Bill Belichick in a series of expletive-laden Instagram posts, calling it a "stupid decision" and saying "a locker room was divided pregame." He also suggested Butler move on from New England this offseason.

"Man, Bill wasn't right at all tonight," Browner said in one video. "I ain't know how to feel watching that s--- without my homie, without Malcolm f---ing playing."

That was the most passing yards given up in NFL super bowl history.
