The Kansas City Chiefs had a rough start at Allegiant Stadium. The only noteworthy moment in the first quarter was when was sacked by 49ers linebacker . The second quarter didn’t fare much better, beginning with a 49ers field goal.
Mahomes tried to rally the team with a 52-yard pass to . However, a fumble from resulted in the 49ers regaining possession. In the subsequent drive, San Francisco used trickery to deceive the Chiefs’ defense.
After the snap, 49ers quarterback handed the ball off to , who then threw a crossfield pass to All-Pro running back , leading to a 21-yard rushing touchdown.

Brown’s tweet caused a stir on the internet. Former Chiefs player also shared his thoughts. Hill tried to decipher why Brown phrased it that way. The all-pro player subtly suggested that skin color might have played a role.
But we know the reason though, right 🫣 https://t.co/jkr2GobWtk
Don’t bring up race when you make $30M annually. But yeah, AJ would have been kicked out. I think they would have been fine with you because you’re the whole team in Miami. #NFL
Claiming that he would have been ejected by the Eagles was a bold statement, even for Brown, who is known to be talkative. After Hill retweeted, Green Bay Packers offensive tackle asked why the 8-time Pro Bowler responded in such a surprising manner.
Hill was likely prepared to respond. He wrote,
Because he plays in Philly, there’s more media attention 😵💫🥹
Bakhtiari agreed with him, but the conversation didn’t end there. It turned out that Brown didn’t even send the original tweet that sparked the debates. Moments later, the account that posted it claimed to be a fake.
This is a fake AJ brown page. I’m just a fan. I’m not trying to get him in trouble with what I say lol
Brown’s teammate and Eagles cornerback, , supported this claim. Slay confirmed that he spoke with the 26-year-old to verify whether it was really him or not.
Just talk to AJ, that wasn’t him..
Luckily for Brown, Slay saw the tweet and defended him. Otherwise, the statement made by the alleged ‘fake profile’ could have caused significant trouble for him.
