He has had serious bouts with depression and suicidal thoughts in the recent past. 🙏🏻 https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/titans/2021/11/18/aj-brown-tennessee-titans-depression-elijah-moore/8671469002/ Given the Eagles being supportive of Brandon Brooks & Lane Johnson in their mental health struggles, I'm sure he'll get the support and encouragement here. The NFL has been open to talking about mental health issues in recent years. It's best to be open about it and get the help needed from professionals, and reducing the stigma. Praying for AJ to get the help he needs.

May 6, 20223 yr Hey everyone, titans fan here. I haven't read this whole thread so idk what all you guys know about AJ but thought I'd come by see you guys reaction to this and toss out some stuff I know as a titans fan. You guys got one hell of a player which I am sure you guys already know. Will play his butt off for you but he has some injury history. He may have only missed 6 games in the last 3 years but he misses lots of snaps in games he is playing in because of his knees. Has been an issue since we drafted him. Dude is a warrior though and plays through it most of the time. Not trying to rain on your parade for the trade just letting you all know since I never hear the media mention it. But when healthy you guys got possibly the best intermediate range guy around who is far faster than his 40time and runs like a running back. Anyway, ill leave you all to your own thing unless you guys got any questions for me. And good luck with your season anything to screw over the cowgirls is a positive for me👍🍻 Edit: also I wouldn't worry to much about his mental health, more him being a diva than what has looked like something that you would worry about his safety over. He just acts childish which is kinda understandable at 24. Just don't throw snowballs at him and you should be fine 😏

Just don't throw snowballs at him and you should be fine 😏 General consensus is excitement over getting a young top WR in his prime, minimal concerns. You have to hope Burks works out for you. I live in Nashville and some fans and media trying to downplay it are foolish, it's a big loss. Tannenhill isn't the answer and now the offense will take a step back unless Burks lights it up. The only concern here is about the QB position getting the ball to AJ. Hurts has a great O line and now has really good skill players around him so he won't have any excuses. The WR group here was pathetic previously, now they have Brown and last year's #1 pick Smith so we're looking forward to having competent players at that position finally.

I definitely agree with you from the titans and (my opinion) of the eagles side of things. I was devastated for a moment when we traded him but once I heard the contract I knew why. Wanted Burks coming out just didn't think it would cost us AJ to get him but I am not worried. You guys definitely have a nasty group of skill guys now and are in a weird spot kinda like we are where is your QB enough is the Convo.

Which really isn’t much for a player like him nowadays. Wonder if you could’ve gotten the same deal but this seems like a big mistake.

For a run first team that is having some cap trouble and needs to pay Jeffrey Simmons it made sense to let him go as much as it hurt

But hey, we gladly take him! Good luck with Burks. 😄

Good luck to you all as well and if any of you guys ever come to our forum(since we play this year) that we are a great group of people but the place is a mad house as well. If ya can't take a joke stay away. Wish you guys and AJ the best🍻

The Seahawks and Saints are two out-of-division teams that most Eagles fans these days kinda hate. Lost a lot of games to those teams over the past decade.

Many here really don’t like the Saints and were happy we got their first next year and second after. All the more reason to root against them. But the in-division hate runs way deeper.. varied in age who most. For me it‘s ‘Dallas sucks’ all the way.

It can vary, but a lot of Eagles fans don't like Saints and Vikings mostly due to playoff games and their fan interactions.
August 10, 20223 yr This camp has been a great indicator that AJ is every bit the stud WR we hoped he was. Cannot wait to see him dominate!
August 10, 20223 yr Thats great, but I hope Hurts doesnt forget we still have Devonta on the team....
January 10, 20232 yr I was going to put this in the Blog, but this is a better home for it. This is a thread from gotitans.com, a Titans message board. It begins just 1 minute after this thread began, on draft day and continues through the end of the season when AJ broke Mike Quick's single season receiving record. I've only read a tiny bit of it, but they don't seem pleased... https://gotitans.com/threads/aj-brown-traded-to-eagles.103465/

Best WR in franchise history and they get rid of him. Makes me sick. He’s the exact type of player you want. Ultimate competitor. F jrob. How do you trade the best WR Nashville has ever seen for pick 18? I'm livid. Can't believe we traded our best player. I'm stunned Gotta say as a fan of over 44 years this is about it for me. Never had a talent like this at WR. Fing joke. already posted! What is funny is the absolute hatred toward hurts at the start of this thread. Glad to see he's proven everyone wrong.
January 10, 20232 yr With Smith and Brown being the tandem that they are can we forgive Howie for missing on Metcalf and Jefferson now?
