Overview

• Brown finished the 24-20 win over the Cowboys with one target and one 8-yard catch that Jalen Hurts called the game’s most important play.
• A.J. Brown told interviewer Jordan Schultz he was “zoned the entire game,” denied being a decoy and said he is not hurt despite prior camp hamstring tightness.
• Dianna Russini reported multiple teams inquired about trading for Brown in the offseason, but GM Howie Roseman told them “no dice.”
• ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported the Eagles hope to involve Brown more in Week 2 with an organic approach rather than force-feeding targets.
• Coaches noted Brown’s coverage attention created opportunities for teammates, and outside commentary has fueled speculative trade talk even as he remains under contract through 2029.
