Overview
- After serious discussions with the Rams and Patriots, Philadelphia is not trading A.J. Brown at this time and no move is imminent, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.
- A pre–June 1 deal would cost the Eagles roughly $43 million in dead money, which drops to about $16–16.4 million after June 1 under NFL cap rules.
- Teams have been told the price is steep, widely reported as at least a first- and second-round pick, drawing comparisons to the Davante Adams trade return.
- The Rams explored a deal before acquiring cornerback Trent McDuffie, slowing dialogue, while both Los Angeles and New England continue to monitor Brown’s status.
- Brown remains under contract through 2029 and produced 78 catches for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns in 2025, with reported frustrations fueling months of league interest.
