A.J. Brown credits Elijah Moore with helping him through suicidal thoughts

In 2018, A.J. Brown and Elijah Moore were teammates at Ole Miss. Brown, a junior at the time, quickly built a strong bond with the younger Moore.

Brown declared for the 2019 NFL draft and was selected by the Tennessee Titans with the 51st overall pick. Moore stuck around in Mississippi for two more seasons, eventually earning his spot in the NFL as well.

This past Friday, Brown posted a video on Instagram (now deleted) that explained just how instrumental the New York Jets rookie wide receiver was in helping through a dark moment in his life, as first reported by The Nashville Tennessean.
