Antonio Brown trended on Twitter on Friday after he announced that he plans to revive his NFL career. 

Nearly two months after saying he had retired, Brown tweeted that he plans to play for the Ravens, which signed up his younger cousin, Marquise Brown. 

On his viral post, Antonio Brown shared a photo of himself wearing a Ravens uniform with the caption, "Excited to return to the NFL this year."

His tweet raised questions as the former NFL star is currently not on the Ravens roster and whether this could actually be possible.

Brown's ugly divorce from Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year was possibly one reason teams had stayed away from him. It was his second season with the Buccaneers.
