A.J. Brown Changes IG Photo to the Joker amid Rumored Eagles, Jalen Hurts Drama

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown leaned into the supposed drama between he and quarterback Jalen Hurts.

The three-time Pro Bowler changed his profile photo on Instagram to be Heath Ledger as The Joker in The Dark Knight.

The story started Sunday in the aftermath of Philadelphia's 22-16 win over the Carolina Panthers.

Hurts threw for just 108 yards in the win, his third straight sub-200-yard performance. Asked what he thought the offense needed to work on in the wake of the victory, Brown candidly responded, "Passing."

Eagles defensive end Brandon Graham, who's recuperating from a season-ending triceps tear, hinted at a genuine divide that has grown between the star passer and wideout. He said that "things have changed" in their relationship.

Not surprisingly, Graham walked those remarks back in an interview with ESPN's Tim McManus.

"I made a mistake and I assumed that it was something that it wasn't," the veteran leader said. "I just want to win so bad that I don't just want to use the media when we need to talk about something and we can fix the problem ourselves. I didn't add to it in a good light, so that's my bad.

"I just assumed, and it made me out to look even worse because I had it all wrong and now people are going to run with that part. I really just want to win, man, and I want brothers to be able to just hash it out."

Head coach Nick Sirianni weighed in as well and said Tuesday he thought Brown's original comments in the postgame interview were misread. Rather than a pointed critique of Hurts specifically, Brown was saying everybody in the passing game needs to improve.

This is entirely too much turmoil for a team that's first in its division at 11-2 and has already clinched a playoff berth.

Maybe Brown's subtle change on social media he isn't taking all this too seriously.
