Report: Eagles WR A.J. Brown unlikely to be traded on draft night
TL;DR
A.J. Brown is unlikely to be traded on draft night, with reports indicating he will remain with the Eagles through the 2026 NFL Draft. The Eagles would face significant cap issues if they traded him before June 1st.
For teams who were hoping to strike a deal for A.J. Brown on draft night, it appears they will not get their wish. The Eagles' star receiver will likely remain in Philadelphia through the 2026 NFL Draft, per reports.
This isn't a surprising update, considering the significant cap ramifications the Eagles would suffer if they traded Brown before June 1st.
When asked about Brown's future at yesterday's pre-draft press conference, GM Howie Roseman gave the expected answer: "A.J. Brown is an Eagle." Philadelphia has added several new receivers to the roster this offseason, including Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, and Elijah Moore.
If the Eagles select another pass-catcher early in next week's draft, it could indicate that the team plans to be without Brown moving forward.
