Detroit Lions star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is setting the record straight after a viral video surfaced of him allegedly playing NBA 2K at 4 a.m. on Sunday before the team’s Week 4 matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
Per ESPN’s Eric Woodyard, St. Brown said it wasn’t actually him playing the video game, as one of his friends was logged into his account.
“I like to have fun with it. There’s trolls on the internet, on Twitter, everywhere, so I can be a troll myself sometimes,” St. Brown said.
St. Brown initially responded to the video surfacing by saying, “You know I can’t confirm or deny if I was on 2K at 4 a.m. I do love playing 2K, though.”
The 25-year-old also joked about the matter on Instagram after the Lions’ 34-10 victory over the Browns:
St. Brown produced seven catches for 70 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Cleveland, so it would’ve been an incredible feat to have such a strong game after staying up playing video games until 4 a.m.
Detroit won’t have to worry about St. Brown being ready to dominate once again during Sunday’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
