The Philadelphia Eagles have two of the best wide receivers in the NFL, and A.J. Brown perfectly described their relationship.
Speaking to the media on Wednesday, Brown again denied any rivalry or hierarchy, perfectly describing the relationship as “peanut butter and jelly.”
“We are peanut butter and jelly. We are a very special group. We are happy for one another. We look at it as competition. I’m happy to have a partner like that pushing me, who is selfless”

You really can’t have one without the other, and Brown and Smith have perfectly complemented each other over the past two years since the former Ole Miss star was acquired in a trade from Tennessee.
Since joining the Eagles, Brown posted 2,952 receiving yards while Smith generated 2,262 yards, surpassing the 1,000-yard mark each campaign. There are enough footballs to go around, and as Brown eloquently stated back in April, you can never have enough “alphas” on one team.
