When visiting Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia Eagles fans are known for giving opposing players a hard time. This time, it seems San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel might be a target, especially after A.J. Brown gave Eagles fans the green light to tease Samuel.
The exchange started with Samuel calling Eagles defensive back James Bradberry “trash” on the I Am Athlete podcast, following Philadelphia’s win over San Francisco in last season’s NFC Championship game. Samuel didn’t back down from those comments leading up to Sunday’s rematch.

What adds spice to the situation is Brown encouraging Eagles fans to troll Samuel. This is noteworthy because Samuel previously expressed his dislike for the Eagles, labeling them his “most hated team” due to the constant trash talk from both the fan base and the players.
The upcoming game is already significant as it’s a rematch of the NFL Championship Game between the top-seeded Eagles and the second-seeded 49ers. A win for either team will play a crucial role in securing home-field advantage and a smoother path to the Super Bowl.
