Mic'd Up: Did Ben Really Call Antonio ‘Ronald?’
For reasons only he knows, Antonio Brown wants to be known as Ronald and, with the season he's having, his quarterback is willing to oblige.
You may have heard that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown wants now to be known as Ronald. So far, he isn't saying why.
We're not sure what his teammates call him in the locker room, but we now know how Ben Roethlisberger refers to him on the field.
When you're a top wideout and want to go by Ronald instead of @AntonioBrown, @steelers Big Ben will abide.#InsideTheNFL TONIGHT 9p ET/PT. pic.twitter.com/FxmDxTCsR3

Brown, err Ronald, were mic'd up for Showtime's ”Inside the NFL.” The cameras also caught this exchange between Brown and the Giant's Odell Beckham Jr. prior to Sunday's game at Heinz Field.
