WATCH: Former Rebel A.J. Brown Hauls in Long Touchdown in Super Bowl 57
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- During a tied second quarter of Sunday's Super Bowl 57, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts loaded up and threw a deep ball to wide receiver A.J. Brown, and he made an impressive catch to give his team the lead.
Brown, a product of the Ole Miss Rebels, has been a key weapon for the Eagles this season, his first year in Philadelphia. Take a look below at Brown's touchdown reception.
At the time of this writing, the Eagles hold a 14-7 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl as the first half winds down. Brown is the only former Rebel taking the field tonight in Arizona, and he recently showed love to his alma mater prior to the game.
"[Ole Miss] means everything man," Brown said. "You know, I bleed red and blue. [Oxford] is always home. I'm definitely trying to finish the job. I know that my Ole Miss family is proud of me, that place will forever have a big place in my heart... I'd like to say thank you to Ole Miss, and to the people that helped me get here when I was [in Oxford]."
