Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown seems to be following the same script that his fellow 2019 wideout draftees are following.
He, Terry McLaurin, and Deebo Samuel decided not to take part in on-field offseason workout programs with their respective teams.
While they are not obliged to attend those team activities yet, they are using their leverage to get a contract extension.
After all, now is the perfect time to cash in after the deals signed by Tyreek Hill and Davante Adams.
However, Samuel took it a step further by requesting a trade from the San Francisco 49ers.
Are the Titans also seeking to trade their Pro Bowl wideout if that’s the case?
Brown is notorious for stirring up narratives through social media.
He recently tweeted that Marcus Mariota was the best leader he’s ever been around.
That post looked like a shot at Titans starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill.
However, his recent actions may put the rumor mill on hyperdrive.

Brown had a recent workout with Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Just like the Mariota tweet, this session could mean nothing.
It could be two athletes that would like to improve themselves for the upcoming season.
Besides, the Titans are not actively seeking a trade for Brown and have all the intent to re-sign him.
But on the other side, a picture could mean a thousand words.
The Eagles Need Help At Wide Receiver
Philadelphia has a star receiver in DeVonta Smith, who had 916 yards and five touchdowns last season.
Quez Watkins also had solid numbers of 647 yards and one touchdown.
However, their other wideouts have been disappointments.
Jalen Reagor has underperformed, and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside will focus on being a tight end.
In that case, the Eagles need someone like Brown to give Hurts more targets downfield.
If a trade happens, the Titans will request one of Philadelphia’s two first-round picks in this year’s draft to select from the deep wide receiver class.
