A.J. Brown is one of the NFL’s top wide receivers, and as a perennial All-Pro, the Eagles pass catcher made national headlines when he was spotted on the sidelines reading the book, ‘Inner Excellence’ by Jim Murphy.
During Thursday night’s NFL Honors, rap legend and host Snoop Dogg shouted out Brown while reading the book during one of his monologues.

Brown explained his reasoning for reading the book to the media, explaining that it brings the wide receiver “peace” and mental jewels.

In the book, Murphy helps some of the world’s top athletes discover the mental training system that has empowered athletes to become world #1 and, most importantly, transform their lives.
Brown had one catch for ten yards on three targets in the game, but Philadelphia won 22-10 and eventually advanced to the Super Bowl LIX.
