The Eagles saw their season end in a bitter defeat against the 49ers in the wild-card round of the playoffs, with no player perhaps under as much scrutiny as star wide receiver A.J. Brown.
Brown has become a lightning rod for drama in his past few years on the Eagles, from his viral book-reading antics on the sidelines to his disgruntled social media posts more recently this last season. In Sunday’s wild-card game, Brown was expected to have a big role in the passing game, but ultimately fell flat, finishing with just three catches on seven targets for 25 yards. He declined to speak to the media following the loss.
