Eagles Expected To Trade A.J. Brown To AFC Contender In Franchise-Altering Move

This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

The A.J. Brown trade rumors continue ahead of the start of the league’s new year. The Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver has been linked with multiple teams in recent times, including the New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens and Los Angeles Chargers.

The Eagles reportedly want a big haul in return for Brown. A first- and a second-round draft pick would be in the cards to unlock negotiations with Howie Roseman. While nobody has offered anything, the Eagles continue to build the market around Brown.

One of the best teams in the AFC could pull the trigger and add Brown, who might be the final piece they need to get over the hump and compete for a Super Bowl ring. Brown played 15 games in 2025, recording 78 receptions for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns.

AFC Contender Predicted To Land A.J. Brown In 2026 Offseason

Jack McKessy of USA Today mentioned the Buffalo Bills as one of the potential spots for A.J. Brown this offseason. After failing to replace Stefon Diggs, who left after the 2023 season, the Bills leaned heavily on James Cook to carry the offense. They need to add an aerial weapon for 2026.

“Enter Brown, the high-ceiling receiver that would give the Bills their first true WR1 since Diggs left Buffalo after 2023,” McKessy wrote. “Adding a receiver like that would help push Buffalo’s offense forward and allow them to deploy a similar strategy to the 2024 Super Bowl-champion Eagles: complement a strong run game with a dynamic passing game, all surrounding a talented, dual-threat quarterback.”

Just like McKessy, ESPN predicted that the Bills would end up landing A.J. Brown this offseason. Seeing him with Josh Allen would be crazy, but it won’t be easy for Buffalo.
