Brown&#8217;s future continue to swirl, free-agent wide receiver Marquise &#8220;Hollywood&#8221; Brown is headed to the Philadelphia Eagles<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Per NFL insider <a class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__ui__link__medium_strong css-lu48cp\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Schultz_Report\/status\/2033937019718517134?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Jordan Schultz<\/a>, Brown agreed to a one-year deal with the Eagles worth up to $6.5 million. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">The 5&#8217;9&#8243;, 180-pound Brown played 16 games for the Kansas City Chiefs last year, catching 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns on 74 targets. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Brown starred at Oklahoma before the Baltimore Ravens selected him with the 25th overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft. He played three seasons with the Ravens, capped by a career-best 2021 when he caught 91 passes for 1,008 yards and six touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">However, Brown issued a <a class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__ui__link__medium_strong css-lu48cp\" href=\"https:\/\/www.baltimoreravens.com\/news\/marquise-hollywood-brown-explains-his-trade-request#:~:text=During%20an%20interview%20on%20Sirius,It%20was%20just%20my%20happiness.%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">trade request<\/a> after the season. He was eventually shipped, along with a third-round draft pick, to the Arizona Cardinals for a first-rounder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Injuries hampered Brown somewhat during his two years in the desert. He had 67 catches for 709 yards and three scores in 2022 (12 games) before following that up with a 51\/574\/4 line in 2023. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">After the 2023 season, Brown entered free agency, and he signed a one-year deal with the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Unfortunately, Brown suffered a <a class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-inherit MuiLink-root MuiLink-underlineAlways MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__ui__link__medium_strong css-lu48cp\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/chiefs-wr-marquise-brown-getting-checked-out-at-hospital-after-suffering-shoulder-dislocation-vs-jaguars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">sternoclavicular joint dislocation<\/a> during a preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he missed the first 15 games of the regular season. He did appear in the Chiefs&#8217; playoff run to an AFC title but had a tough postseason (five catches, 50 yards on 13 targets).<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">In 2025, Brown had the best catch rate of his career at 66.2 percent. He finished third on the team in catches, second in receiving yards and first in receiving touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Brown has now moved onto the Eagles, which hopes he can find the spark showed at the end of his time with the Ravens. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Injuries certainly hampered Brown from 2022-2024, and he didn&#8217;t have the greatest production in 2025.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">However, Brown&#8217;s capable of being a solid starting receiver and can certainly be that here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bp_small__body__article__medium css-1vqr2el\">Even if the Eagles decide to keep A.J. Brown, they still needed help at the No. 3 receiver spot where Darius Cooper had been penciled in. Hollywood Brown is an upgrade at that spot as Philadelphia looks to solidify its roster after a disappointing loss in the NFC wild card round to the San Francisco 49ers in January. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As the rumors about A.J.
