A.J. Brown was not on the practice field at Lincoln Financial Field on Wednesday as the Eagles began their on-field preparations for their divisional-round playoff game vs. the Los Angeles Rams. No, he didn’t play hooky and go to a Barnes & Noble.
After the wide receiver was seen reading "Inner Excellence" on the sideline, the book hit No. 1 overnight on Amazon and got some funny reviews from Eagles fans.
Brown believes he left "a lot of opportunities" on the field in the Eagles' playoff win over the Rams. “I can’t worry about what happened in the past or even these past two games,” he said.
The Eagles advanced to the NFC Championship game against the Washington Commanders despite throwing for just 65 net passing yards. And now Hurts is dealing with a knee injury, too.
