Derwin James Sets Off a Firestorm After Dropping a Message Eagles Fans Instantly Call a Major Disrespect.QQ
The rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and… well, almost everyone just got a whole lot nastier.
Late Monday night, Chargers star safety Derwin James took to X (formerly Twitter) and unleashed a disrespectful rant aimed directly at
Eagles fans, and it didn’t take long for the entire NFL community to notice.
In the now-deleted post, James wrote:
“Philly fans think they’re tough, but all I see are loudmouths living off 2 Super Bowl rings. Y’all act like the league owes you something, newsflash, you’re not special.”
Within hours, the post went viral. Thousands of Eagles supporters flooded his mentions, calling him “irrelevant,” “classless,” and “a defensive player who talks more than he hits.”
By the next morning, barely
12 hours later, James had quietly deleted the post, but not before screenshots spread like wildfire across social media.
And then came the response everyone was waiting for.
Eagles star wide receiver A.J. Brown
, never one to back down from defending his city, clapped back with a calm but cutting message that sent Eagles Nation into a frenzy:
“He said Philly fans are loudmouths? No, they’re loyal. They’ve had our backs through wins, losses, and everything in between. You can’t fake that. You can’t understand Philly unless you’re part of it, and he’s not.”
The quote exploded online, earning over 6,000 likes in just a few hours, as Eagles fans flooded Brown’s replies with green heart emojis and chants of “Fly Eagles Fly.”
NFL insiders say the league has been monitoring the situation closely, but for now, it’s clear that
Derwin James’ comments lit a fire under Philadelphia’s locker room.
One fan summed it up perfectly:
“You don’t poke the Birds, you get hit by the whole flock.”
As the Eagles prepare for their next matchup, one thing’s certain:
Philly never forgets, and A.J. Brown just reminded everyone why.
