Jeffrey Lurie Meets A.J. Brown as Reports Point to Wider Eagles Offensive Friction

Brown agreed to stop airing complaints on social media after a practice-field talk with Lurie that signaled a leadership move to steady a scaled-back offense.

Overview

  • ESPN reports Lurie held a roughly 10‑minute practice-field meeting with Brown, facilitated by security chief Dom DiSandro, where Brown pledged to stop public complaints; Lurie did not seek an apology and the conversation ended with a hug.
  • Multiple reports, including The Athletic via Dianna Russini, say several offensive players are frustrated with Jalen Hurts’ approach, citing hesitancy against zone coverage and a tendency toward checkdowns over tight-window throws.
  • Philadelphia’s attack under new coordinator Kevin Patullo has skewed conservative, ranking 25th in passing yards per game (191.7) with low third‑down efficiency and a high three‑and‑out rate despite a strong record.
  • Brown’s production has dipped to 31 catches for 408 yards and three touchdowns in eight games, putting him on pace for a career-low yardage total this season.
  • Pro Football Rumors reports the Eagles fielded trade interest in Brown before the Nov. 4 deadline but kept the three-time Pro Bowler as they moved forward at 7-2.
