Former Ole Miss star Elijah Moore is in position to make a big splash with the New York Jets, and there’s no bigger fan of him in the NFL than Tennessee Titans star A.J. Brown, his former teammate.
Brown discussed their relationship on a recent episode of “Raw Room,” and explained that their connection went as far as Brown taking himself out of a game so that Moore could score his first touchdown. Brown also added that he’s put his money on Moore to win Offensive Rookie of the Year.
“Without a doubt, over anybody,” Brown said.
“It ain’t about his physical attributes, it ain’t about none of that,” Brown said. “It’s his mindset. That’s why we clicked on another level.”
Brown added that he used to live with DK Metcalf, but moved out to have his own space. But when Moore arrived on campus, Brown invited Moore to live with him.
“My mindset already crazy, but for him, he was only going to make me better,” Brown said. “I want to be around people who make me better.”
