AJ Brown tricked Philadelphia Eagles fans into thinking he got traded when he posted a New England Patriots jersey online.
The caption of Brown’s post was, “The wait is finally over.”
In the video, Brown cryptically says, “Well, it’s finally official. The wait is over.” He shows the camera an “11” jersey, his current number for the Eagles, and then turns it over to reveal the back, which says “Edelman” and begins laughing. Julian Edelman is a former Patriots wide receiver who retired in 2021 after 12 seasons with the franchise. During his time, he won the Super Bowl three times, Super Bowl LIII MVP, and is a finalist for the 2025 Patriots Hall of Fame.
“I almost threw up and drove to Howie’s house,” a fan reacted to Brown’s post, referring to Howie Roseman, who is the vice president of the Eagles.
“You gotta chill now you gone put n—– in the E R,” another fan joked.
“Glad to see AJ enjoying life because he obviously deserves it but as an Eagles fan this got me mad as HELL for a quick second lol,” another fan commented.
A fan jokingly is punishing the Eagles wide receiver, “You know what don’t get on ig until the season starts.”
Later in the video, Brown showed off a signed Tom Brady jersey.
