Eagles' A.J. Brown proposes, with assist from John Legend
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown earned one ring earlier this year and gave away another over the weekend. Brown, 27, announced Sunday that he proposed to his girlfriend, Kelsey Riley, at the Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia. In attendance on Saturday were several teammates, friends, family and Grammy Award winner John Legend to serenade Riley on piano with "All of Me." Riley, however, posted on social media that she did not "hear a thing he was singing," and Brown had to note that Legend was there. Legend made sure all parties will remember that he, indeed, was in attendance. "Congratulations to you both," Legend wrote in the comments of Brown and Riley's joint post. "Thank you for including me." Love apparently is in the air in "The City of Brotherly Love," as two-time All-Pro Lane Johnson recently announced his own engagement to Kelsey Holmer. Star quarterback Jalen Hurts also recently was married to Bry Burrows. Brown, Hurts and Johnson helped the Eagles defeat the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX in February. --Field Level Media Field Level Media 2025 - All Rights Reserved

Eagles parade is set for Friday
The City of Brotherly Love will celebrate the Eagles' Super Bowl championship on Valentine's Day. Eagles president Don Smolenski said on WIP that the team will hold a parade through Philadelphia on Friday. There is expected to be a winter storm on Tuesday that stretches into Wednesday and that impacted the plans for a celebration of the second title in franchise history. 'We are holding Friday,' Smolenski said. 'Friday will be the day. I think we're going to do something tomorrow with the city, but I think we put something out last night just to say Friday. Just watching the weather, we've got some snow coming this week so we want to be respectful for the city to do what they need to do. One extra day of planning doesn't hurt and it's a nice way to kick off the weekend.' The city confirmed the date on Monday and said full details of the plans for the parade will be released soon. The celebration after Super Bowl LII featured a memorable speech from center Jason Kelce, but his retirement means others will take center stage during these festivities.
