Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown called into a local radio show to clarify his future with the team.
On Friday, the 26-year-old called 94WIP and publicly expressed his commitment to the Eagles. He also took the opportunity to address the rumors about him and his teammates after his late-season collapse.
Brown was quick to dismiss rumors of animosity between him and quarterback Jalen Hurts.
“I think that’s bullshit,” Brown said of the rumors. “I’m not going to talk about our relationship on the air; it wasn’t an issue when I was on my six-game streak.” “They only started talking about it when we started losing.”
“Yes, the locker room was good,” he continued. ‘The players weren’t executing, that’s what it came down to. I think the media agreed with the coaches. “It was the players who did not execute.”
