NFL News: Eagles’ AJ Brown makes honest admission about his celebration in the Super Bowl

The Philadelphia Eagles‘ victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX featured plenty of storylines, but one moment that stood out was AJ Brown’s touchdown celebration. With the game’s outcome becoming clear early on, Brown played a crucial role in securing the win and later opened up about the inspiration behind his end-zone dance in NFL 2025 Finale.

Alongside quarterback Jalen Hurts, Brown was a key figure in the Eagles‘ dominant performance. With Saquon Barkley neutralized by the Chiefs’ defensive line, Brown stepped up in the first half, finding the end zone and earning praise from teammates and fans alike. Social media quickly lit up with reactions, turning his celebration into a viral moment.

Brown’s dance was more than just spontaneous fun, it was a nod to a lighthearted moment from media day. During an interview, former Browns quarterback Jameis Winston had asked players about their touchdown celebrations for the upcoming season.

When he got to Brown, Winston jokingly suggested a specific move, which the Eagles receiver later brought to life on the sport’s biggest stage. After the game, Brown confirmed the connection, saying, “We got that celebration from Jameis. Shoutout to Jameis!”

The scene quickly became a talking point, with cameras capturing head coach Nick Sirianni and several teammates engaging with Brown as he sat with his book in hand.
