As the new NFL season approaches, the Philadelphia Eagles are rumored to trade star wide receiver AJ Brown. Analysts are split on the potential trade, with some predicting a move to the New England Patriots.
Brown signed a $96 million extension with the Eagles before helping them win Super Bowl LIX, but the massive fee is now weighing on the team. Analyst Sal Paolantonio believes the Eagles have run out of leverage due to their high demands.
However, NFL insider Ian Rapoport disagrees, stating that a trade to the Patriots is the most likely scenario. Post-June 1st is a crucial date in the AJ Brown sweepstakes, and most signs point to him joining the Patriots.
The New England Patriots recognize the need for players who can help them win the Vince Lombardi Trophy, and one of Brown's old teammates wants him to join the team. Despite the huge cap hit, Brown's age, and the Eagles' demands, both parties may have to move forward.
