A.J. Brown isn't sugarcoating how he feels about this season, and he's warning fantasy football players to stay away.

The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver joined streamer Janky Rondo on Twitch Tuesday night to play Madden when he was asked how things were going. Brown didn't hold back.
"Family's good, yeah," he said with a laugh. "Everything else? No! It's a s***-show."
Rondo tried to lift his spirits, predicting a monster performance this Sunday against the Detroit Lions — maybe even 200 yards — but Brown wasn't buying it.
"Hey, if you got me on fantasy, get rid of me," he said. "Just telling you."
The comment comes as frustration seems to be boiling over for the Pro Bowl receiver, who's voiced displeasure with his targets and the team's offensive rhythm at times this season. Reports suggest there's some friction with star quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Still, Philadelphia sits at 7-2 and remains among the NFL's top contenders.
That part of it likely explains why fans have mixed reactions to Brown's outburst.
"I love AJ and I understand the frustration," one fan posted, "but he's a captain and has been creating outside drama unnecessarily. Fix it in-house."
Whether it's a genuine warning or just venting, fantasy owners are now on notice. A.J. Brown's patience might be running out.
