A.J. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles:
If you remember nothing else I say today, remember these three things, please. Number one, run your own route. Everybody’s path is different. Stay focused on yours. Comparison kills potential faster than failure ever could.
Number two, watch the film on yourself. Be real about your flaws. Own them. Grow from them. Self-awareness is a form of leadership. And, number three, think bigger than today. Everybody wants quick wins. Everybody wants to go viral. I’m sorry to tell you, social media is not real.
Class of 2025, this is your kickoff. You’re stepping into a new season. You’re holding the ball. Ole Miss gave you the playbook. Now it’s your job to call the plays and lead the drive. So whatever you’re chasing, chase it with humility.
