A.J. Brown Defuses Speculation After Cryptic Post as Insiders Downplay In‑Season Trade

Brown apologized, saying the post targeted no one internally.

Overview

  • Following a two-catch, seven-yard outing in a Week 4 win, Brown said he let frustrations boil over, took full accountability for a Bible-verse post, and reaffirmed his commitment to Philadelphia while stressing he wants the ball in critical moments.
  • Philadelphia is 4-0 but ranks 31st in passing, and Brown has 14 receptions for 151 yards and one touchdown through four games, intensifying scrutiny of the offense’s direction.
  • Head coach Nick Sirianni publicly backed Brown’s value to the team and questioned nothing about his desire to be a good teammate or remain with the Eagles.
  • ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Brown’s deal carries nearly $90 million in dead money, which league executives say makes an in-season trade unlikely, with any serious discussions more plausible in the 2026 offseason.
  • Reactions extended beyond the team as Jason and Travis Kelce weighed in on Brown’s approach, and media floated hypothetical destinations such as New England, proposals that remain speculative.
