VIDEO: AJ Brown Says Reading A Book On Sidelines During Games Gives Him A Sense Of Peace

Have you ever wondered what NFL players do on the sidelines during games? Well, AJ Brown, a wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles, has a unique way of keeping himself calm and focused. He reads books! That’s right, while most players hype themselves up or analyze plays, AJ Brown chills out with a good book.

According to him, he’s been doing that all the time but the cameras caught him during the game against the Green Bay Packers. He added that reading a book on the sidelines gives him a sense of peace and helps him stay mentally sharp. It’s his way of escaping the chaos of the game and finding a moment of calm.

“It gives me a sense of peace,” Brown said about reading during games, according to NFL Network’s Stacey Dales. “That’s the book that I bring in every single game. My teammates call it the recipe. That’s the first time I heard y’all got me on camera, but it’s not the first game. It’s got a lot of points in there, it’s a lot of mental game, a lot of mental parts about it. Works for me.”

He added: “It’s something like how I refresh every drive.”

The book that Brown was reading is “Inner Excellence” by Jim Murphy.

According to the cover, it is supposed to, “train your mind for extraordinary performance and fullness of life.”
