According to a new report, we are getting a very different picture than what former Tennessee wide receiver A.J. Brown painted in the wake of his being traded to the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night.
Per Sports Illustrated’s John Glennon, Brown actually wanted out of Tennessee and had stopped communicating with the team weeks ago.
Adding to that, Brown was apparently looking for more than the $25 million per year he ended up getting from the Eagles, and his reps might have been asking for $80 million guaranteed, which is $23 million less than what he received from Philly in his four-year, $100 million deal.
