A.J. Brown Downplays Reported Hurts–Barkley 'Meeting' After Eagles' Second Straight Loss

Brown says a casual stop to talk was miscast as a formal sit-down.

Overview

  • Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley told reporters they had a conversation with A.J. Brown this week, describing it as teammates talking rather than a players-only meeting.
  • Following the 34-17 loss to the Giants, Brown told reporters he did not recall any meeting and directed questions to his teammates.
  • On Friday, Brown posted on X that it was not a meeting or a sit-down, saying he was walking to his car when he stopped to talk with Hurts and Barkley.
  • The clarification comes after a game in which Hurts threw a red-zone interception with Brown appearing open, intensifying scrutiny of Philadelphia’s struggling offense.
  • Speculation about tension and possible trade scenarios has grown in media coverage, though the team has not confirmed any roster plans or internal rifts.
