By James BrizuelaShareNewsweek is a Trust Project memberThere is still trouble brewing between star receiver A.J. Brown and the Philadelphia Eagles. Brown has continually spoken out about his frustrations with not receiving the ball from quarterback Jalen Hurts and essentially becoming a non-factor in the offense.

Brown's recent comments were somber, as he stated how upset he was watching other receivers do very well around the league. For context, the Eagles star only has 457 yards and three touchdowns through nine games. This averages to about 51 yards per game.
The Eagles not utilizing Brown is odd, but things are still working for the team. Philadelphia is 8-2 and is tied for the best record in the NFC.
Due to the ongoing drama with one of the NFL's best receivers not seeing much production, fans chose to pile on the Eagles following a viral pregame moment between Brown and NFL legend Tom Brady.

Brady and Brown were using pregame moments to play catch, warranting tons of responses from fans. Most of the comments on the post have to do with the Eagles receiver not getting this kind of love from his own quarterback.

One fan wrote, "About time someone throws the ball to him."
Another said, That one throw is already as many targets as Brown will get in the entire game."
Another posted, "AJ Brown wanted to know what is feels like for a real QB to throw him the rock."
One fan said, "AJ Brown seeing what it’s like to have a QB who can throw the ball."
Clearly, fans agree with the frustrations that Brown has been exhibiting during pregame and postgame interviews. The Eagles may need to figure out a way to utilize their best receiver, or possibly trade him in the offseason.
The drama is clearly not going away, and Brown continues to be disgruntled. Time will tell if the Eagles get him more involved in the offense moving forward.
