Eagles legend gave tough love advice to A.J. Brown after dramatic playoff exit

Despite the heartbreak of the Philadelphia Eagles losing in the NFC Wild Card to the San Francisco 49ers, the story of the game surrounded wide receiver A.J. Brown.

It all started in the second quarter when Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni got in Brown's face after a bad drop on third down, with Sirianni saying it was just him getting Brown off the field. After two bad drops in the loss, Brown declined to speak with the media and instead just gave hugs and said his goodbyes with teammates.

Everyone has been giving their opinions on what the Eagles should do with Brown during the offseason, whether trading him and moving on is the right thing, or trying to make it work.
