Brown may have forgotten about his teammate Trent Murphy, who was suspended in April for violating the league's performance-enhancing drugs policy. Murphy tore his ACL in the preseason, ending his 2017 season.
Johnson and the Eagles will travel to D.C. to face Brown and the Redskins in Week 1 on Sunday, September 10th.
