The no fun league has returned.
A.J. Brown revealed on social media he was fined $10,000 by the NFL for pointing his finger at two Pittsburgh Steelers defensive backs in Sunday’s Week 8 victory. The Eagles receiver caught his third touchdown catch of the first half and proceeded to point at the two defensive backs covering him. Brown was flagged on the play as a result.
Brown had reason to celebrate as he became the first Eagles player to have three touchdown catches of 25-plus yards in a game since Ben Hawkins in 1969.
“I just said one, two, and that is still not enough,” Brown said with a smile.
The 25-year-old finished the contest with six catches for 156 yards and three touchdowns.

Brown has 42 catches for 718 yards and six touchdowns through the first eight games. He’s 10th in the league in receptions, fifth in receiving yards, and tied for third in receiving touchdowns.
Philadelphia is averaging 242.3 passing yards per game in 2022 as they continue their perfect season with an 8-0 record after defeating the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football.
