Comment:

 Hey @adampatterson,

 I believe you'll find that one of your up-to-date plugins is calling
 `escape_js()`. The likely explanation is that it had some 5.0-only
 functionality built in ready for release, but since you weren't yet on 5.0
 it wasn't running that part of the code.

 `esc_js()` calls the `js_escape` ''filter'' but doesn't call the
 `escape_js()` ''function'' at all.

 You can use a plugin such as [https://en-au.wordpress.org/plugins/query-
 monitor/ Query Monitor] to debug what plugin is calling `js_escape()` and
 causing the deprecated notice.
