A.J. Brown Dismisses Injury Talk After 1-Target Opener as Eagles Rebuke Trade Inquiries

Brown cites heavy zone coverage for his quiet game, saying he is healthy.

Overview

  • Brown had one catch for eight yards on one target in the Eagles’ 24-20 Week 1 win over the Cowboys.
  • He told reporter Jordan Schultz that Dallas rolled zone coverage his way and insisted he was not a decoy or hurt.
  • Coach Nick Sirianni and OC Kevin Patullo said the game plan included Brown but circumstances redirected targets, praising his professionalism.
  • New reporting says multiple teams probed an offseason trade for Brown, but The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports GM Howie Roseman told them no.
  • Commentators have floated trade scenarios, though team signals point to increasing Brown’s involvement for Sunday’s rematch with the Chiefs.
