The bigger picture is what A.J. Brown is focused on as he gets set to face his old team. It's on Fox. Regardless of how the trade goes down, Brown feels like he's won. My family's life was forever changed by me. The goal is that. Growing up from where I am. We play the game because I want to do great and accomplish all the great things. On the first night of the draft in April, Brown was traded from theTitans to theEagles for the 18th and 101st picks. The trade was contingent on a new contract extension for Brown, but the two parties couldn't agree on it. He signed a four-year, $100 million contract with Philadelphia. Brown was going to make a base salary of less than $4 million in his last year with theTitans. Brown told Turron Davenport that he wasn't to blame for the trade going down. The deal they offered was a low one. The 18th pick in the draft was used on a player who has played in seven games because of injury and has 24 catches for 334 yards and no touchdown. Brown leads the 10-1 Eagles in targets, receiving yards and receiving touchdown and is second on the team with 53 catches. A year ago, Hurts completed 61.3% of his passes, but this year he's completed 67.3%. The upcoming game with theTitans is not personal, but there is more significance to it for him. The Raiders players have faith in the coach.

He said he had to be professional about it and keep his emotions down. I'm trying to be as consistent as possible. I'm focused on who we're playing.
It is going to be a big game for him. He is going to be playing with his emotions. He's going to have a big day.
Brown doesn't need to do anything more than just be A.J. Brown, according to coach Nick Sirianni. That's the reason he's here, that's why we traded for him, and that's why we paid him. Don't worry, just be yourself. You don't have to do anything special because you're special.
Brown expressed gratitude towards the organization and said he is now at peace with how everything went down with the team.
It's a business when you get through things in this league. I wanted to end my career as a titan. He said that he thought he said that. They're going to do what's best for them, so you have to do what's best for you." You get older. That is what I did.
Brown was sick last week and is on the mend. He wasn't able to eat for two days. He dropped seven pounds after putting a blood vessel in his right eye. He played against the Green Bay Packers and had an inconsistent game, losing a key fumbled ball before scoring a touchdown. He had a good workout on Wednesday as he was getting ready for Tennessee.
