Mark Brown/Getty Images"We appreciate the hard work of many people over the past 11 days, but we feel that it is best to move in a different direction at this time," the Patriots said in a statement.
Here's a look at the timeline of his short stay with the Pats:
Sept. 7: Brown reaches agreement with New England following his release by Oakland Raiders.
Sept. 10: Britney Taylor, Brown's former trainer, files civil lawsuit saying he sexually assaulted her on three occasions.
Sept. 11: Drew Rosenhaus, Brown's agent, denies assault allegations on ESPN's SportsCenter.
Sept. 11: Wide receiver attends first practice with Patriots.
Sept. 15: Brown records four catches for 56 yards and a touchdown in first game with New England, a 43-0 victory over the Miami Dolphins.
Sept. 16: Robert Klemko of Sports Illustrated details new sexual misconduct allegations against Brown from an artist who painted a mural in his Pittsburgh home in 2017.
Sept. 16: Darren Heitner, Brown's attorney, denies misconduct allegations in statement to TMZ Sports.
Sept. 19: Brown holds first press conference as a member of the Patriots and says he's only focused on football.
Sept. 19: Klemko publishes a story detailing intimidating texts Brown allegedly sent the woman who outlined sexual misconduct allegations.
Sept. 20: Patriots announce Brown's release.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the NFL can now investigate allegations that Brown intimdated the woman under the personal conduct policy and can do so "without any time pressure." Schefter added "it's hard to imagine another team would attempt to get in the way of that. So Brown's NFL career is on pause and possibly could even be over."
