Wide receiver A.J. Brown reminded the Tennessee Titans exactly what they traded away after torching his former team during a blowout victory for the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13.
Brown led the way for Philly with eight catches for 119 yards and two scores, which only made the Titans’ loss to the Eagles even tougher to stomach.
After the game, Brown admitted he had this game circled on his calendar and he wanted to make the Titans regret trading him. He also noted that it was personal for him and reiterated how he wanted to stay in Tennessee.
“This one meant a lot to me… I’d be lying to you to say I didn’t circle this game,” Brown said. “I wanted to make them regret that decision.”
“To be honest, it’s been personal since the trade,” Brown added. “I’ve been trying to keep it down. I stated that’s where I wanted to be.”
Prior to Brown scoring his first touchdown of the game, the Eagles wide receiver had a 40-yard touchdown called back because he stepped out of bounds on the reception.
But before the play was reversed, Brown ran up to the padding on the goal post, pulled out his towel and began whipping it before giving it a hug to celebrate. He explained the meaning behind the celebration afterwards.
“Today I’m going to have to give you a whooping, but I still love you, though” Brown said with a laugh. “That’s where the hug came in at the end.”

This game was the absolute worst scenario for the Titans. They got beat down bad by the Eagles, and Brown had a big part in it.
