A.J. Brown gets emotional after Elijah Moore is drafted by the Jets
We’re used to seeing lots of emotions during the NFL Draft. It’s rare, however, to see a current NFL player get emotional seeing another player drafted.
That was the case, however, when the New York Jets selected Elijah Moore. A.J. Brown, who was a teammate of Moore’s at Ole Miss, was noticeably emotional telling Moore how proud he is of him.

Moore was selected by the Jets with the No. 34-overall pick in Friday’s second round. While some expected Moore to be a first-round pick, Brown has shown there’s nothing stopping a second-rounder from finding success in the NFL. Brown was selected No. 51 overall by the Tennessee Titans in 2019. He made the PFWA All-Rookie in 2019 and was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2020.
