Antonio Brown Chooses Xenith: AB Will Wear Xenith Shadow This NFL Season
“I choose Xenith.”
Oakland Raiders wide receiver and seven-time Pro-Bowl selection Antonio Brown has chosen to wear the Xenith Shadow.
After a lengthy saga between Brown, the Raiders, and the NFL, that
has roots dating all the way back to 2018, Antonio Brown, after trying
out multiple helmets, has chosen Xenith’s flagship product.
“It’s just, I only get one head and one neck,” the Raiders wide
receiver told reporters on Wednesday. “So I gotta make sure when guys
(are) trying to take my head off, I got the right lid to protect (me).”
That right lid is the Xenith Shadow..
“NFL athletes have a choice in what helmet they wear. I choose
Xenith,” said Brown. “It’s not easy to make a change like this so far
into your career, but the Xenith Shadow was the only helmet that could fit my needs on the field.”
That comes as no surprise to those familiar with protective head
gear. The Xenith Shadow, released in December of 2018, is top-rated by
NFL Laboratory Testing and has a 5-Star rating from the Virginia Tech
Ratings, which is widely accepted as the most trusted helmet ratings in
football.
In addition to excelling on lab tests, Xenith Shadow is thoughtfully
designed for the athlete. The helmet provides balanced weight
distribution and a light, responsive feel, allowing for quickness and
speed on the field, while ensuring a stable fit.
Antonio Brown has been one of the league’s premiere wide receivers
since he entered the league in 2010. Forgoing his senior year at Central
Michigan University to pursue his professional career, Brown was
selected in the sixth round, 195thoverall, by the Pittsburgh
Steelers. Over the next nine years, Brown would prove to be an elite
professional football player, amassing 837 receptions for 11,207 yards
and 74 receiving touchdowns in addition to five return scores, making
him a seven-time Pro Bowl selection and also becoming a two-time
receiving yards leader (2014, 2017), two-time receptions leader (2014,
2015), and one-time touchdown leader (2018).
This off-season, Brown was traded to the Oakland Raiders, joining legendary head coach Jon Gruden.
In addition to being a standout on the field, Brown has also
contributed to a number of charitable efforts donating his wealth and
time to youth development programs, school supply efforts, soup
kitchens, and Children’s Hospitals in his hometown of Miami, and his
former home in Pittsburgh.
The announcement comes just a couple weeks after Xenith and the Oakland Raiders partnered to provide brand new helmets to a local Las Vegas-area youth camp.
“At Xenith, our entire business is built around designing for the
football athlete – having one of the best athletes in the game choose
the Xenith Shadow is an absolute honor,” said Ryan Sullivan, Xenith CEO.“From
the first conversation we had with Antonio and his business partner
Connor Kroll, it has been a collaborative effort – from designing for
his on-field performance needs and high standards, to the values we
share on and off the field, we look forward to many more collaborations
with AB.”
Xenith and Antonio Brown look towards the future in creating a
partnership that is larger than football. With a shared passion for
community building, furthering the athlete’s pursuit, and making the
game of football accessible for athletes at all levels and from all
beginnings. This type of collaboration benefits both parties mutually as
values and goals are aligned across both #XenithIsBOOMIN
