PHILADELPHIA — On the night of April 28, moments after he heard about his trade from the Tennessee Titans to the Eagles, star wide receiver A.J. Brown hit the football field and went through what he described as one of the “most intense workouts of his life.”
“I thought, ‘If they’re going to trade me, it’s going to be one of the biggest mistakes they’re ever going to make,’ ” Brown recalled.
Nearly eight months later, Brown is preparing to face his former team for the first time since the trade, with the Eagles (10-1) scheduled to host the Titans (7-4) on Sunday afternoon at Lincoln Financial Field. Brown acknowledged he’s experienced a rush of emotions over the past year, but he’ll attempt to rid himself of those feelings on game day.
