In a chilling moment, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown was nearly hit by a car during a charity bike event.
The broad All-Pro was competing in the sixth annual Eagles Autism Challenge bike ride, streaming the event while riding.
As the receiver drove through an intersection, you could hear people in the background shouting “woah!” and ‘hey!’.
Then Brown’s phone appears to fall on the road, then freezes looking up at some power lines.
Afterwards, Brown tweeted to his fans to let them know he was fine and no injuries had occurred.

Philadelphia Eagles wideout AJ Brown narrowly avoided a car crash on Saturday afternoon

Brown also stoked the fires of the Cowboys rivalry, joking that a Dallas fan might be behind it.
“I’m fine everyone,” the receiver wrote. ‘Someone ran to the side of the stop [angry face emoji].’
“I didn’t fall off my bike, I just dropped my phone and swerved. Stay safe everyone.
In a subsequent tweet, the two-time Pro-Bowler jokingly accused a Cowboys fan of being behind it all as he claimed: ‘I think I saw a star on the license plate.’
While it’s unlikely a member of Cowboys Nation intentionally tried to hit Brown, the prank fueled a rivalry that lasted until the last day of the regular season last year.
Dallas and Philadelphia were vying for the top spot in the NFC East in the 2022 season, with the Eagles ultimately winning.
Brown earned a Pro-Bowl and a second-team All-Pro selection after catching 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2022.
As for the charity event itself, the Eagles say they raised $6.2 million for autism research and care programs. Buto remonto ir vidaus apdailos darbų kainos https://www.bustovizija.net/apdailos-darbu-kainos/
