The Philadelphia Eagles decided to trade A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots for a 2028 first round draft pick and a 2027 fifth round draft pick. The news of the trade was anticipated as rumors of the trade had been leaked for months.
However, now A.J. Brown has admitted to leaking some secrets during his time in Philadelphia. Something that didn’t sit well with Eagles fans.

A.J. Brown Admits To Leaking Eagles Secrets
AJ Brown’s time as a Philadelphia Eagle has come to an end. Whenever he returns to Lincoln Financial Field, he should not expect a warm welcome.
It was on June 1 that the wide receiver finally got his dream move to the New England Patriots. He is fortunate that they will only be playing his former team in preseason this year, and it will not be in Philadelphia.
Following his trade to New England, Brown sat down with Maria Taylor to discuss his departure:
He would admit to leaking stories to the media on purpose to create drama, which he claims should have helped motivate his teammates.
“It was done purposely to give us a push. It gives everything legs to push everyone to be better. I feel like it was okay to do,” Brown said.
Here is the video of him admitting this:

Fans immediately reacted to this news:
Bro just admitted to back dooring a Super Bowl team and leaking inside information. But Eagles fans aren’t allowed to criticize him? Were the bad fans bc we don’t like treasonous players?? F y’all. F Aj. And F the Pats.
this dude had a c on his jersey btw
They gave u the max money you wanted a championship squad had you competing in the post season every year but you still ain’t satisfied
So, to review: A.J. Brown wanted out and leaked it to Dianna Russini. Russini, who was going on long getaways with Vrabel, shows interest. Every day from before the trade deadline onward, the story continues to be reported ad nauseam. Last day of the year, A.J. Brown may or may not have dogged a pass from Jalen, and Philly exits the playoffs. Magically, all of it was true, and he gets traded. If this isn’t collusion, what is collusion, exactly?
Damn. I surprised the Eagles didn’t find a way to get rid of that headache much much sooner!
