Are A.J. Brown and Antonio Brown Cousins?

In the NFL, where talent runs deep and stories intertwine, questions about players' relationships off the field often emerge. One such query that has found its way into football conversations is whether Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown and free agent Antonio Brown are cousins, or related in any other capacity. After all, the two have that shared last name, and both play a similar position on the gridiron. However, when you look at the backstory of both, you will see that A.J. Brown and Antonio Brown are no kin to each other.
Background on A.J. Brown
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown was born on June 30th, 199,7, in Starkville, Mississippi. He attended Starkville High School and was an outstanding athlete, receiving All-State recognition in both football and baseball. After his high school career, Brown played college football at the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss), where he had an impressive career finish with over 2,500 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns.
A second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans, Brown has been one of the game's best young receivers. During his first three seasons, Brown went to the Pro Bowls and was part of three playoff teams.
Background on Antonio Brown
Antonio Brown is on the other end of that spectrum in terms of age and career chaos. Brown was born on August 14th14, in Miami, Florida, and attended Michigan University durable. Drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers as a sixth-round 2010, he would go on to become one of the most dominant receivers in league history, with even Pro Bowl selections and four All-Pro teams.
But AB has had his fair share of off-field problems that have overshadowed his career, including sexual assault allegations and a feud with the Oakland Raiders that got him released just in time to play another game before getting dumped by the New England Patriots.
Are They Related?
A.J. Brown is unrelated to Antonio Brown despite having similar names and positions. They are from all over the country and have a mix of university backgrounds.
On the Whole
So, to reiterate, AJ Brown and Antonio Brown are not related in any way; they only share the same last name. They are a pair of wideouts from varying backgrounds and schools with divergent NFL paths. Rumors and speculations that the two are cousins or have any familial relationship with each other are baseless.
