When A.J.Brown signed for the Eagles, he expected to be the No.1 receiver in the team. But of course has a lot of competition, specially with DeVonta Smith, and it has not been so easy for him to win that spot.

“They throw the ball to me 100 times, I’m going to want it 101 times,” Brown said, via ESPN. “Me personally, I just feel like I can change the game at any moment. Getting the ball often keeps you going, keeps you in a rhythm. It definitely puts you in a zone; you’re locked in. Of course, I want the ball.

“I’m never the receiver to go on the sideline or try to cause problems on the sideline. I’m not that guy. I think that’s what you could describe as a diva, but I’m not that person.”
