Eagles A.J. Brown embraces his role: 'I'm OK with being whatever bad guy I have to be for the city'
Briefly

"I'm OK with being whatever bad guy I have to be for the city, the town, whatever the case may be, to hold everybody accountable, be accountable, and to get better. If I'm that guy I will be that guy, gladly."
"Incredibly tough," Brown said with a straight face, before looking away and letting out a smile and suppressing a laugh that didn't match the supposed seriousness of his remarks.
The scrutiny from the outside helped spark what fellow receiver DeVonta Smith said were a lot of "tough" and "uncomfortable" conversations among teammates.
Brown didn't expect the type of firestorm ignited by his original comments, but he did acknowledge last week that his words were intentional, designed to shift the focus to the slumping pass game."
