The receiver isn’t even a week removed from winning Super Bowl 59 with the Philadelphia Eagles and he’s telling the world it isn’t enough.
Brown, who just wrapped up year six in the NFL and his first as a champion, took to Instagram in an effort to inform everyone of his feelings after the big game. While championships are enough for most, that won’t be the case for him.
‘After a few days, I’ve had time to reflect on being a champion,’ Brown wrote. ‘I tried to feel how everyone made it seem to be a champion and unfortunately it was short lived.. two days to be exact lol.’
He signaled that he prefers the chase and dominating the opposition instead.

‘I’ve never been a champion at the highest level before but I thought my hard work would be justified by winning it all,’ Brown said. ‘It wasn’t. My thrill for this game comes when i dominate. It’s the Hunt that does it for me. It’s when the Db drops his head and surrender because he can’t F with me . The Intense battles. Early mornings. Late nights. Sacrifices. I love putting smiles on peoples faces, don’t get me wrong but it just wasn’t what I thought it would be. It’s the journey that I love the most. BACK 2 Work!’
Brown is coming off somewhat of a down year statistically. He missed three games with a hamstring injury and was later absent in Week 18 with a knee issue. The Eagles opted to rest starters in that game, meaning Brown’s absence was likely more precautionary given he played the following week.
Philadelphia opted for a run-first approach all year long thanks to Saquon Barkley’s dominant season. The running back transformed the offense and challenged the NFL’s single-season rushing record.
Regardless, Brown’s impact was still felt all season long. He posted seven touchdowns and 1,079 yards in just 13 games.
However, things got a little dicey in the playoffs when frustration began to boil over at times. Amid his one catch for 10 yards performance in the wild-card round, Brown was seen reading a book on the sidelines. That was later downplayed and eventually became a non-issue.
It wasn’t until the NFC championship game that Brown’s impact was felt in the postseason. He turned in 96 yards and a touchdown against the Washington Commanders before totaling 43 yards and a touchdown in the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs.
While those accolades are great, Brown is already gearing up for the 2025 regular season.
The ring is great, but he’d like it better on the finger of domination.
