A.J. Brown, aka Arthur Juan Brown, an American professional football wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles of the NFL, is more than just his standout career; he is a devoted family man.
Born on June 30, 1997, in Starkville, Mississippi, A.J. Brown is the youngest son of parents, Arthur Juan Brown Sr. and Josette Roberston.
A.J. Brown has two elder siblings, Reva and Shareda.
Unlike A.J. Brown, whose professional life is known to millions, very few people are aware of his parents and sisters, as they prefer to maintain a low profile.
Brown’s father, Arthur Brown Sr., worked for Starkville’s electrical service for 24 years; however, he was forced to retire in 2009 after a workplace accident that injured his back.
A.J. Brown often expresses his love for his father and credits him for instilling in him the work ethic and humility that shaped his NFL career.
“I mentioned my dad earlier, too, and he’s the one who instilled in me to work hard at a young age. He’s retired now, but he worked for the electric company and I remember his work ethic.”

Regarding A.J. Brown’s two elder sisters, Reva Claybrook and Shareda Shauntae, they both are thriving in their respective careers.
Brown’s older sister, Reva Claybrook Brown, a resident of Clarksville, Tennessee, a mother of two, is also an entrepreneur like her mother.
Reva started her own business with her daughter, named Zoey’s Bow2ful Boutique. Additionally, Reva also shares fitness advice on her social media inspring people.
A graduate of Starkville High School and Fisk University, Reva worked as an independent distributor at Family Team It Works Independent Distributors.

Brown also never misses a chance to express his love and pride for his two sisters, regarding them as his constant supporters.
When A.J. Brown was selected by the Tennessee Titans in 2019, he referenced his sisters living in Nashville as a bonus for him.
“She’s 28, several years older than me, so it was nice to have her here to help me get settled in,” Brown told the Titans in 2019.
“Really, that was huge for me, When you go to a new place, you want to be around your family and she would cook me home-cooked meals, and she just made me feel like I wasn’t alone… I was 21 years old when I got drafted and going off to live on your own is an adjustment, different from college. Having my sister here helped, but I think me just being the way I am helped too. I am a homebody.”
