A.J. Brown Reportedly Not Expected to Be Traded By Eagles at Deadline amid NFL Rumors

AJ Brown is reportedly likely to finish out the 2025 season with the Philadelphia Eagles despite rumored trade interest from other teams.

The Eagles "are not expected" to move Brown ahead of the Nov. 4 trade deadline, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Saturday.

Schefter added that the Eagles "would be willing to listen to any trade offer, but sources believe Philadelphia would not be willing to part with Brown for anything less than a blockbuster offer, which is not expected to be forthcoming."

Brown, who has recorded 395 receiving yards through the Eagles' 5-2 start to the season, has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 8 matchup with the New York Giants due to a hamstring injury.

The Eagles are off for a Week 9 bye, but Schefter wrote that there is a "realistic chance" Brown returns by Nov. 10 for a Week 10 contest at the Green Bay Packers.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo previously reported that the Eagles had rebuffed offseason offers for Brown, and that it was "extremely unlikely" he would be traded this season.

According to Rapoport and Garafolo, Brown would expected to receive a trade package similar to what the Dallas Cowboys got for Micah Parsons if the Eagles did end up trading him.

Parsons went to the Packers in September in exchange for defensive lineman Kenny Clark and two future first-round picks.

This season Brown has averaged fewer than 57 receiving yards per game, a career low, as he's seen his target share fluctuate over the course of the campaign.

That included making just one catch on one target for eight yards in the Eagles' season-opening win over the Dallas Cowboys, and two catches on nine targets for seven yards in a Week 4 win at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

In each of the Eagles' last three outings, Brown has seen fewer targets from Jalen Hurts than either or both of DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert.

That didn't stop him from posting his best outing of the season against the Minnesota Vikings last Sunday, when he recorded a season-high 121 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 28-22 Week 7 win.

Brown has recently sparked rumors with multiple cryptic social media posts, most recently including a post last week captioned, "Using me but not using me."

When asked about Brown's social media presence Friday, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters he was "always in constant communication with all our guys" and that things were "business as usual."

The Eagles have 10 days to listen to offers and decide on their future with Brown before the trade window closes on Nov. 4.
