Antonio Brown’s new custom cleats are a wonderful tribute to Pat Tillman

These are great.

Antonio Brown has debuted incredible custom cleats on nearly a weekly basis this season. He may have raised the bar to a new level this week with the debut of these Pat Tillman tribute cleats.

Celebrating Pat Tillman just days after Veteran’s Day is a wonderful gesture by Brown. The NFL has paid tribute before, including teams wearing No. 42 decals, but Brown’s cleats are one of the best and most unique tributes yet.

One cleat features a photo of Tillman wearing his Army Ranger uniform. The other cleat features Tillman running out on the field. A similar photo to the statue of Tillman that stands outside of the Cardinal’s stadium.

This is hardly the first time Brown has paid tribute with some custom cleats. He did the same for Mohammad Ali, Jose Fernandez and Kimbo Slice.

Well done, Antonio.
