A.J. Brown Says He Doesn't Recall Eagles Meeting That Hurts and Barkley Acknowledge

Conflicting messages surface during a stretch of bottom-tier offensive production.

Overview

  • After a 34-17 loss to the Giants, A.J. Brown told reporters, “I don’t recall a meeting,” when asked about a reported Monday discussion with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley.
  • Hurts and Barkley had confirmed the talk occurred and described it as a normal, constructive conversation focused on moving forward as a team.
  • Barkley said he wished the exchange had remained private and emphasized it was not a heated players-only session.
  • Head coach Nick Sirianni praised players for seeking solutions, and offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo said the unit has “done a good job” and needs to keep progressing.
  • Philadelphia ranks 30th in total offense and 31st in passing, with criticism heightened by an earlier game featuring just 11 rushing attempts against 44 passes.
