Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown apparently had his car stolen last night in Philadelphia. Now, he’s taking action, sending a message of warning to the thief before it’s too late.

Brown took to X to let whoever stole his vehicle know that if they return it today, he won’t press charges. However, if he has to go looking and find the perpetrator, there’s going to be hell to pay. Check it out below.

“Dear Philly, to whoever stole my car last night, I’ll make a deal with you, bring back my car and I won’t press charges, or when I find you today, it’s going to be what it’s going to be,” Brown posted on X. “Take it or leave it my guy.”

That’s certainly a harrowing warning being sent out by the Eagles wide receiver. Of course, having your car stolen is something that’ll frustrate even the richest of athletes. While Brown will let it slide as a mistake if it’s returned swiftly, he’s not going to wait and allow the process to play out. He’s seemingly standing on business if his property isn’t returned.

According to Brown via his Instagram, the thief arrived at 3:42 a.m. and the car was stolen by 3:45 a.m. “You’re smooth with it, dog. You’re fast on your feet,” Brown stated. “I’m gonna show you how fast I am on my feet.”

Additionally, Brown stated that he knew where the car was at the moment, but he didn’t offer to elaborate on how he had that information. Also, even though the wide receiver shouted out Philly, the theft didn’t happen in the city, Philadelphia police told Stamm at NBC Philadelphia. Brown didn’t reveal what car was stolen or where it was taken from.

All told, whoever stole Brown’s ride won’t be very popular in Philadelphia. The wide receiver has been a revelation for the Eagles since his arrival in 2022. He’s amassed more than 1,000 receiving yards in each of his three seasons with the franchise, adding at least seven touchdowns each year, as well.

The former Ole Miss star has been one of the best in the entire league at his position, helping the Eagles win the Super Bowl this past season. What the future holds remains to be seen, but it’s bright for Philadelphia. A.J. Brown just wants his car back, though.
