The Antonio Brown situation in Pittsburgh took a totally bonkers turn Wednesday night when he was revealed as the Hippo on Fox’s “The Masked Singer” show.
Yes, that is one of the weirdest sentences I’ve ever written.
But seriously, on the same day the WR posted a cryptic video with James Harrison while watching Mike Tomlin’s press conference in which his coach said AB hasn’t asked for a trade… this happened:

The show is described in it’s Twitter profile as, “A new celebrity competition series with a groundbreaking twist.” Apparently celebs are in disguise and sing and then other celebs try to pick who the singer is, or whatever.
Twitter couldn’t believe it:
