For A.J. Brown trade, it's Patriots or no one
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to trade wide receiver A.J. Brown by June 1, with the New England Patriots being the only viable destination currently.
- The Eagles have prepared for Brown's departure by acquiring other receivers like Hollywood Brown, Elijah Moore, Dontavian Wicks, and drafting Makai Lemon.
- Reports suggest the Eagles and Brown are "not particularly close," which may be a strategic leak to attract other potential trade partners.
- Any trade will depend on Brown's willingness to join the new team, as no team would risk trading for a player reluctant to play for them.
- Brown's preference for reuniting with former coach Mike Vrabel in Tennessee could complicate trade negotiations if other teams are unwilling to meet his demands.
