A.J. Brown addresses his ominous Eagles social media post

A.J. Brown wants to make one thing clear about his cryptic social media post — it was nothing more than venting after a vexing outing.

The three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver posted a Bible verse, Mark 6:11, on his X account on Sunday after Philadelphia’s win over the Buccaneers that read: “If you’re not welcomed, not listened to, quietly withdraw. Don’t make a scene. Shrug your shoulders and be on your way.”

Brown notably finished the game with just two catches — on nine targets — for a paltry seven yards.

The 28-year-old said the post came after he let “frustrations” get the better of him following a quiet day production-wise, and that his anger was not directed toward quarterback Jalen Hurts nor any of his other teammates.

Nevertheless, he said he will not shy away from his desire to get the ball more.

Thus far, despite the Eagles starting 4-0 in their Super Bowl title defense, Brown has 14 catches with a career-low 10.8 yards per reception. He’s put the ball in the end zone just once.

“I don’t think it’s a bad thing for wanting the ball,” Brown told reporters Wednesday. “It’s not just for targets or anything, to put numbers up, no. I see that we’re struggling and I’m a guy that wants the ball in those times when we can’t find a way. Give it to me. When the game’s on the line, give the ball to me. I want that, I want that pressure, I put it on myself, and I work hard for it.

“You can misconstrue whatever perspective about me, but it is what it is, and I don’t care to be honest because my teammates know that when the game’s on the line, look at me. And I want everybody in the stadium to know that. It’s not a secret. I’m not shying away from that.”

Brown added that Philadelphia is “home” despite his latest airing of grievances. Nevertheless, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Wednesday that the Eagles could entertain a trade of the wideout in the offseason after what has been a sometimes rocky relationship between the two sides.

Brown and the Eagles put their win streak on the line against the 2-2 Broncos on Sunday.
