Ole Miss will see one former player in this weekend's Super Bowl LIX, which will pit the Philadelphia Eagles against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Eagles wide receiver A.J Brown has been speaking to the media in the build-up to his second Super Bowl in three seasons. The last time in 2023, Brown was on the losing side, 38-35, to the team he will come up against this Sunday, the Chiefs.
Brown spoke about his time in college and his life building up to that. The talented wide receiver grew up in Starkville, Mississippi, deciding to head to Ole Miss instead of Mississippi State to pay for his college football.
Brown spoke to the media about those times and how they have shaped him.
