Patriots Land A.J. Brown, Eagles Move On

0:00On April 20th, Adam Schefter dropped a bombshell this week, saying the new England Patriots are likely to land Philadelphia Eagles star-wide receiver, AJ Brown. The Pats have shown strong interest, but no deal before the draft. Talk should heat up after June 1st, when the Eagles can cut their dead cap hit and make the trade smoother financially. On first take, ESPN's Dan Orlowski called it a done deal, predicting the move is just waiting on the legal side. He says the relationship in Philly has run its course, both professional and personal. Brown boasts a Super Bowl ring, and three second team all pro nods in four equal seasons, but he averaged a career low 12.9 yards per. Caps last year in a struggling offense. Orlowski points out, Brown does not fit the new coordinators plan heavy on multiple tight ends over receivers. Still, splitting up benefits both, Brown stays a top five talent and Philly moves forward clean, expect this to shake out soon. Stay locked in with NFL news today.
