Kevin Byard is returning home on Sunday and it’ll be an emotional business trip filled with venom and hurt feelings.
Tennessee and Philadelphia is set for a physical matchup in Week 13 and it’ll center around wide receiver A.J. Brown and his draft night trade.
Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons and Browns have been friends since their youth football days, while the team’s star safety, Byard, is just looking to have a fun afternoon.
“It’s going to be awesome. Obviously, A.J. is my guy. He’s having success in Philadelphia,” Byard said via Mainstreet Nashville. “I know he’s going to be amped up during the game, and I’m going back to my hometown. It’s going to be more about that for me. I’m going to have some family in the stands as well. It’s gonna be fun. It’s gonna be a great environment. Their fans are pretty crazy.”
Here’s more from Byard on the matchup and returning home.
