Forget Big Ben and Tom Brady … Antonio Brown has turned to a high school quarterback to gear up for his NFL return!!

As for how Pete got that role … the story is wild — Pete says he stumbled on a workout with Brown and other NFL stars like Jerry Jeudy and DeShaun Watson at a Florida field back in March.
The Deerfield Beach H.S. QB tells us they saw his big right arm … invited him to Brown’s gym — and just a few weeks later, he ended up being one of AB’s personal QBs.
Zamora says he throws passes regularly to Brown now … working out for a couple hours at a time and tossing somewhere between 50-to-75 passes to the former NFL All-Pro.
Pete tells us he hasn’t seen AB lose a single step despite not playing in the NFL since September … and says the guy still belongs on a pro field.
“He hasn’t lost any gears,” Zamora said. “He’s still fast as ever and he’s still a top receiver in the league. I feel like a team should definitely sign him.”
As for off-the-field, Pete says Brown’s been but nothing but a gentleman to him … adding, “I think he’s a well-spoken guy. A very encouraging, very positive guy.”
By the way, Pete tells us there is no compensation for the work … but colleges are starting to notice his game a bit now — telling us even Brown’s former school, Central Michigan, is starting to recruit him!!
