That doesn't really sound like a guy who wants out, huh? Also, he talked about the offense as a whole and his excitement for next season.

"As an offense, we just come back and just really watch the tape and just like I said, rediscover ourselves and go to work each and every day," Brown said. "Being accountable and take it one day at a time. We have great leaders in our locker room. I'm fortunate to be a part of that, especially on offense. We do have a lot of talent, but talent gets us nowhere. It's all about being detailed and disciplined. ... I'm always excited. Sometimes change is not a bad thing. I have the utmost respect for [Kevin Patullo]. To me, he did a tremendous job and he has a great heart but I'm excited for the season. I am excited for what's to come, for sure."

Now, the rumors continue to swirl. The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported that the situation is still "unresolved."

"AJ Brown’s situation with the Eagles is still unresolved, but his relationship with the team remains somewhat tenuous," Russini wrote. "From what I’m hearing, substantial conversations about his future have not yet taken place, but expect talks to ramp up around the NFL combine in two weeks."

Brown's comments speak volumes. He didn't sound like someone who wants out, although there is a long offseason ahead.
