A.J. Brown's Injury Not Believed To Be Serious

11 months ago

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) was scheduled to undergo an MRI exam earlier this week, but the NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says from his understanding, Brown's knee injury isn't believed to be serious. The 26-year-old went down in the Week 18 loss to the New York Giants with a knee injury and looked to be in significant pain. The Eagles have an extra day this week with their wild-card meeting against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night, but Brown's practice status will be worth monitoring later this week for sure. Fellow wideout DeVonta Smith (ankle) missed Week 18, and quarterback Jalen Hurts dislocated a finger on his throwing hand last Sunday, so Philly's best offensive players are heading into the playoff opener with question marks. At a $8,100 DraftKings price tag (third-highest price among receivers), Brown could have bust potential on Monday if he suits up and isn't 100 percent.
