Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown say they’re 'good' after Eagles teammate suggests rift

Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown's troubles connecting on the field have yet to blow into a family feud inside the locker room — honest, both Philadelphia Eagles stars said.

Between Hurts and Brown, it's all good in Philly.

"Me and Jalen are good," Brown said.

Added Hurts, "We're good, we're good."

So there will be no sit-ups in the driveway, no apologies on the front lawn, and certainly, it seems, no rift between Hurts and his No. 1 receiver.

Hurts and Brown each downplayed any hint of a fissure Wednesday between the two after defensive end Brandon Graham appeared this week on a Philadelphia sports radio station and suggested there was friction between the Pro Bowl duo. The two were close friends long before they became teammates and Hurts is the godfather for Brown's daughter.

Graham's comments — in which he noted "things have changed," between the two, without offering specifics — exploded into tabloid and fan fodder this week in Philadelphia. His insinuations that the duo were not on the same page came on the heels of Brown's quote after a sluggish win over Carolina that the "offense" wasn't playing up to standard, even with the Eagles at 11-2.

"BG knows he spoke out of place," Hurts said.

Graham, who is sidelined with a triceps injury, clarified his comments later to an ESPN reporter, saying he made the wrong assumption about the relationship between Hurts and Brown and planned to apologize to both players.

Brown, with 109 yards receiving combined the last two games, said his beef with the offense wasn't directed at Hurts. It was everything from offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's playcalling to execution to all the ingredients in a successful offense that make a team a Super Bowl contender.
