In the matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steelers, the 25-year-old wide receiver AJ Brown revealed on Twitter that the NFL fined him. When the Mississippi product announced this on Twitter, he must have metaphorically hidden his face while typing the tweet.
The Eagles are undefeated in the league. They dominated the Steelers and wrecked them by a score of 35-13. Where did the fine come from in this outstanding game?

Well, it happened when the Pro Bowl selection made his third touchdown, which was a toss from the QB Jalen Hurts. The touchdown was 29 yards. The wide-out ran towards the right end zone where he found himself with Minkah Fitzpatrick and corner Ahkello Witherspoon.
Before getting flagged, he pointed at his opponents and explained to the reporters, “One, two [defenders], that’s not enough.” This was a decision he regretted heavily.
My two little finger points the other day cost me 5k a piece. I will keep my hands, feet, and other objects to myself from now on lol 😭😭😭

On his Twitter, Brown wrote: “My two little finger points…” It is understandable how sad the Eagles star feels, but when one is under the intoxication of success, one does questionable things. Apart from the tiny trouble AJ Brown faced, it was an ecstatic game for him.
The skilled player set career highs: 156 yards and three touchdowns. Arthur Juan Brown became the most form wide receiver in the league because he became the first player with 100 receiving yards and 3 TDs in the first half of a game. Truly an amazing achievement.
AJ Brown and his team are undefeated!
The Philadelphia Eagles are on a roll! They are the only team in the league who did not lose any games. Recently, against the Houston Texans, they won their eighth game and defeated them by a score of 29-17. Jalen Hurts completed 243 passes for 243 yards and two scores. Although Houston made the Philly run for their money, no Eagles could get trapped under the Texans.

The completion was rough in the first thirty minutes of the game. Davis Mills showed strength along with Dameon Pierce, who played brilliantly. They showed they meant business and could trample over the undefeated team of the NFL. For the Eagles, they could only take the lead in the second quarter. Kenneth Gainwell carried the ball into the end zone. The offensive end of the team stole the show which put the Eagles at a score of 14-17.
