The Eagles are rolling in Week 17, taking a 34-7 lead over the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field after Tanner McKee hooked up with A.J. Brown for a 20-yard touchdown.
Afterward, an excited Brown threw the ball high up into the fans section at Lincoln Financial Field and didn’t realize he made a gaffe until he reached the sideline.
A second-year player and former sixth-round pick out of Stanford, McKee has never thrown a touchdown pass during a regular season game, and the play to Brown was his first NFL touchdown.

Realizing his mistake, Eagles head of security Dom Disandro went into the stands to retrieve the football, and Brown agreed to give the fan a signed game jersey in exchange for his trouble.
