Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver AJ Brown made headlines on Sunday when he publicly admitted to having beef with quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Despite his Eagles winning 22-16 over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, AJ Brown voiced discontent with Hurts in his post-game interview with reporters. Brown slammed his helmet at one point of the game and told reporters that the “passing” unit had to improve.
Making things even weirder? While speaking to reporters on Monday, veteran defensive end Brandon Graham admitted that there is beef between Brown and Hurts. Graham stated that Brown could have handled things better, and that the two “were friends before this…but things have changed.
Amid questions about the relationship between AJ Brown and Jalen Hurts, Philly’s star wideout added another peculiar chapter to this saga with his Instagram activity. Fans noticed that Brown changed his Instagram avatar to an image of Heath Ledger’s Joker from “The Dark Knight Rises.”

AJ Brown had just four receptions for 43 yards against Carolina, which was still tops among Philly players. Though he threw two touchdowns, Sunday marked Hurts’ third straight game with under 200 yards passing.
The strange part of this feud? The Eagles have won nine in a row and are in the running for the NFC’s top seed and first-round bye with an 11-2 record. But the on-field success hasn’t been enough to keep Hurts and Brown on the same page.
AJ Brown Isn’t Having His Best Statistical Season
As fantasy football players know, this hasn’t been Brown’s finest statistical campaign by any means. As he missed three games due to injury, Brown has 48 receptions for 836 yards and four touchdowns.
After posting over 80 receptions and north of 1,400 yards receiving in consecutive years, it looks like Brown will fall well short of those totals this year. Such is life when Saquon Barkley takes over as the focal point of the offense with an MVP-like season.

A Dallas Cowboys fan was doing everything possible to make his viewing at the AT&T stadium less stressful on Monday night.
The Cowboys lost their eighth game of the season this week, practically handing the game away to the Cincinnati Bengals at the end. And it appears that a senior fan came prepared for disappointment as he was caught on camera taking draws from a cigarette in the stands.
“Being a Dallas Cowboys fan is Stressful af,” an X user wrote as the caption to a clip of said fan getting his smoke on.
AT&T Stadium is one of 26 NFL venues where smoking is prohibited. E-cigarettes and vaporizers aren’t allowed either, although the team has designated smoking areas outside of the stadium.
“Back when America was a free country you could do this without worry!” someone declared.
“Whats more crazy is he is only 29,” another joked.

“If I get second hand smoke on me, he’s getting second hand beer on him,” a user threatened.
Dallas Cowboys Choked In The Most Comical Fashion
The Cowboys handed the game to Cincinnati in the most comical fashion with the scores tied at 20-20 with two minutes to go in the fourth quarter on Monday night.
Having secured possession off a three-and-out and blocked the resulting punt, one of their cornerbacks gave possession right back to the visitors as he touched the ball beyond the line of scrimmage.
Joe Burrow made full use of the opportunity, finding Ja’Marr Chase for the game-winning score, leaving Dallas, particularly Micah Parsons, in shambles.
