2 years agoIn his introductory news conference on Monday, new Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown offered some insight into how his trade from Tennessee materialized. According to Brown, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts put a "bug in [the Eagles'] ear" leading up to the draft and lobbied for both the team and Brown to make a deal. During an on-field workout together, Hurts told Brown that he was working to have Philadelphia acquire him. Hurts and Brown have been friends since Hurts attempted to recruit Brown in high school to choose Alabama. While that did not work out, the relationship obviously paid dividends down the road. The 24-year-old Brown had 63 catches for 869 yards and five touchdowns in 13 games last year. It was a down year due to a chest injury and overall offensive struggles in Tennessee, but Brown has proven to be an elite weapon in his first three years in the league. His status as an elite fantasy asset remains a question as he joins yet another run-heavy scheme and now has to compete for targets with 2021 first-round wide receiver DeVonta Smith and tight end Dallas Goedert.--Dessy John
