Former quarterback Michael Vick spent his last season in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2015.
He was teammates with former wide receiver Antonio Brown and had a little success with him in the five games he played in.
Vick recently talked about how Brown was a different person in Pittsburgh back in 2015 on Club Shay Shay with sports personality Shannon Sharpe.
Vick credited AB for his work ethic and for being a good teammate. The only flaw Vick said Brown had at the time was getting agitated if he wasn't always getting the ball.

"He was a hard worker. He believed in himself. He loved Big Ben. He was into smart understood the system. He would just get a little agitated if he didn't get the ball right."
Many believe the brutal hit Brown suffered against Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict in 2016 is what changed his behavior.
Antonio Brown produced one of his best seasons in 2015 when Michael Vick was throwing to him for a few games
Michael Vick played in five games with the Pittsburgh Steelers while starting three during the 2015-16 season.
It was the same season that Brown had a career performance as he recorded a career-high 1,834 receiving yards. He also added a career-high 136 receptions while scoring 10 touchdowns.
The Pittsburgh team as a whole complemented the wideout tremendously. Beyond Michael Vick and Ben Roethlisberger tossing the ball at quarterback, Brown had a proper cast of receivers playing around him. Players like Martavis Bryant, Sammie Coates, Heath Miller, and DeAngelo Williams were somewhat in their heydays back then.
The addition of the Steelers' famous defense further aided Brown. The likes of Cam Heyward, Bud Dupree, James Harrison, and Ryan Shazier, among others, made for a formidable force.
Vick planned on playing in the 2017 season but after not signing with a team in 2016, he announced his retirement on February 3, 2017.
Now, both Vick and Brown are no longer in the NFL.
