Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown is one of the biggest stars in the NFL, with some even considering him an MVP candidate.
So far this season he caught 67 passes for 1,005 yards and 6 touchdowns in just 9 games. Not only that, he’s been breaking records, earlier this season he had streak of six consecutive 125+ yard games, surpassing Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson’s previous record of five.

Vikings Justin Jefferson meanwhile is sidelined with an injury and is currently on the injured reserve list. Prior to his injury, he managed to grab 36 passes for 571 yards and 3 touchdowns in 5 games.
Jefferson has been rewriting the record books since he entered the league in 2020, earning All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors in each season.
In a playful moment on Twitter, AJ Brown couldn’t help but tease his nephew for saying Justin Jefferson as his favorite NFL player. Brown humorously commented, “My nephew’s favorite player is Justin Jefferson. lol It be your own family. We’re going to see if Jet gets him something for Christmas because I’m not lol.”

We’ll see if Brown sticks to that and doesn’t buy his nephew a Christmas gift. Maybe his nephew will have a change of heart by then.
