**Shannon Sharpe** (0:00)
AJ. Brown spoke to the media about not speaking to Jalen, about not speaking to Jalen Hurts doing Patriots and Eagles joint practice. Let's take a listen to what he had to say.
AJ., this is Senior Four team giving you some closure.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:13)
Closure? No, it's not about no closure or anything, man. It's love, you know. I want a Super Bowl ring with them, and it's always be love, no matter how anyone feels. You know, I love Philly, and I will always love Philly, but I'm here now, and that's where my feet are, and that's where I'm focused on.

**Rolly Romero** (0:28)
Hey, have you talked to Jalen since the training?

**SPEAKER_2** (0:31)
No.

**Rolly Romero** (0:33)
How tough?

**Shannon Sharpe** (0:34)
How do you believe things with him?

**SPEAKER_2** (0:37)
Philly, man, y'all tough, man. Man, it's love, though. Listen, listen. Honestly, guys, none of that stuff even matters, yeah. I think you all should want to report something positive. You know, asking the question is going to turn negative, so let's not get into that, and let's keep everything positive. It's love my way, and just move forward. That's all.
Hi, good to see you. Am I in a better place mentally? I want to say I'm in a better place.
I wasn't in a bad place, I feel it. So I'll leave it at that.

**Chad Johnson** (1:14)
That was very savvy too. Very savvy. You can tell he's been coached up really well when it comes to talking to the media, especially with the question that they're asking, is they're looking for something, they're looking for a headline and he chose not to give it to him. The one thing he kept saying that I like is it's all love.
No, it's not that I'm in a better place because Philly was good to me. That was a good place as well. But right now, my feet and my foundation is here in New England. Have I talked to Jalen Hurts? No, I haven't talked to him, but it's still love.
That gives no ammunition. There's no way they can run with that. There's no way you can twist his words up.

**Shannon Sharpe** (1:52)
Yeah, you can. All I know is that he was swaying when he was speaking. Google, when someone's speaking and they swaying back and forth, what that mean, Ocho? I want you to read it. Someone is speaking and they're swaying back and forth.
Let me find out. I got that book called Body Language. What does it say, Ocho?

**Chad Johnson** (2:18)
Hold on.
Swaying back and forth while speaking is a common habit. It often happened because of nervous energy and an attempt to maintain balance and the stress of self-soothing rhythm to manage anxiety. How you knew that?

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:35)
Because.

**Chad Johnson** (2:38)
I like that. Nervous energy, balance adjustment, self-regulation.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:45)
He was a criminal justice major, man. The greatest body language communicated of any group of people are black people.
So when she say that B don't like me, she don't. She picked up on it.

**Chad Johnson** (3:02)
Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. You know what? I didn't even think about that, the swaying back and forth. I didn't think, I didn't look at it the way you did. That's a good one. I like that.
So nervous.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:16)
Man, listen, think about this. You and he spoke to that man, Ochocinco, and that's supposed to be the godfather of his child. Think about that, Ochocinco. Let that sink in, Ochocinco. The godfather here, whoever the godfather of French fries is, you don't speak to them no more, but it's all love.
And we're on the same damn field. Man, please. It's all love, Ochocinco.

**Chad Johnson** (3:37)
Yeah.
Yeah. Hey, listen. Hey.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:42)
You see what Ochocinco did right there? You see what he did right there? You see the quickness?

**Rolly Romero** (3:46)
Yeah. Yeah.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:46)
Yeah. See, he got it.

**Rolly Romero** (3:48)
You see what he did?

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:49)
This is how you know what Ochocinco want. When Ochocinco want to dress up, he like...

**Chad Johnson** (3:53)
No, listen, I want to address it, but sometime, you know, some in family, sometime you don't speak.

**Shannon Sharpe** (3:58)
We go just leave it. Hey, we... Look.

**Chad Johnson** (4:00)
Sometimes you...

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:00)
What's being reported, we don't need to talk about it. We don't get in nobody's business. There was a two grown men. There'll be a time, hopefully one day, they sit down and they have a conversation. They did win a championship together. At one point in time, they were best friends. Sometimes best friends don't mean forever. Sometimes it does not mean forever. Sometimes that it does.
