A.J. Brown blames angry Titans fans for canceled public appearance

A.J. Brown canceled a scheduled appearance at a football camp after being traded by the Tennessee Titans, and he is now defending himself for doing so.

Brown was scheduled to host a youth football camp in Nashville on June 18. That was before he was traded from the Titans to the Philadelphia Eagles, after which Brown decided not to appear. In a since-deleted tweet, he hinted that Titans running back Derrick Henry was being lined up to replace him, though that has not been announced.

Brown returned to the topic on Friday, sharing a lengthy message on Twitter defending himself for withdrawing. He blamed adults who “feel a way because I was traded” for the cancellation, and that he did not want to put himself in a place where “my peace is going to be threatened.”
