When it comes to divas in the NFL, few are bigger than A.J. Brown.
He’s a great player, yes…but we’ve seen more than a few examples of selfishness and poor attitude – Most notably him whining on the sideline while the Eagles were up huge in the waning moments of their playoff win over the Giants.
Fast forward to now – Brown seems to think the NFL has turned into the NBA where players can hold teams hostages and call all the shots.
Appearing on the Raw Room podcast, Brown said the Eagles better sign Jalen Hurts to a new contract or else he wants out…
“If you do not pay this man, just ship me off wherever he finna go… So you talk about pressure? Howie, get it done.”
Now, of course this comment is certainly said with an element of humor – and it’s great that he has so much love and confidence in his quarterback.
But for a player with selfish tendencies who forced his way out of Tennessee, it’s certainly not a stretch to picture him eventually forcing his way out of Philadelphia.
Also, how about the decision to wear a Kansas City hat fresh off their Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs… Jeez.
Brown comes with too much chatter for me. Always talking. He signed a contract , unreal. Not good for the team.

The decision to resign & pay $$$ @JalenHurts is by far a no brainer. Let's get this done & get ready to run it back next season.

But dude. Why even flirt with unnecessary drama cause you know he's getting paid. Just hope it's a hurts and team inspired contract cause you clearly saw the man did it all and it wasn't enough when defense failed. Its a team sport but solo mission.

Hope he remembers that when they have to release him for salary cap reasons.
