“A.J. Brown, come on to New England buddy,” Byard said recently on CBS Sports.
Byard and Brown have a close relationship. They played together with the Titans and are offseason workout partners. Byard could be telling Brown the same thing off camera.
“Would love to get the gang back together and try to help us win a Super Bowl,” Byard said. “He’s a phenomenal player. And I think it’s just one of those deals. Obviously down year last year, whatever it may be. But I’ve seen the work that he’s putting in this offseason. A.J. is ready to go. So I’m hoping that it kind of works out.”
Current and former Patriots players have been recruiting Brown to New England all offseason. Legendary wide receiver Julian Edelman was one of them. Earlier this offseason, he posted a GIF of himself telling Brown “We’re all Patriots.” Brown is seen smiling and laughing when Edelman says that.
If Brown eventually gets traded later this offseason, he’s expected to land in New England. According to multiple reports over the last three months, Brown is seeking a fresh start outside of Philadelphia while the Eagles listen to trade offers.
