A.J. Brown's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught all five of his targets for 89 yards and a touchdown during the team's 28-3 win over the New York Giants. The Eagles and Saquon Barkley utterly dominated the New York defense on the ground and only needed to throw 14 times. Brown accounted for half of the completions quarterback Jalen Hurts threw and tallied 78% of the team's total receiving yards. No other receiver on the team had more than 11 receiving yards in this game, and it was not because the Giants' defense was doing well stopping the pass, the Eagles just did not need to throw often. The star receiver gets the chance to torch a Cincinnati secondary that ranks towards the bottom of the league.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown will go on the road to take on the division-rival New York Giants in Week 7. The 27-year-old returned to the field for the first time since injuring his hamstring in Week 1 last week against the Browns and proceeded to gain 116 yards on six receptions and score a touchdown. It was a complete return to form for Brown and he will look to parlay that success into another big performance against the Giants, who are close to the middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to the position. With starting tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring) ruled out, the ball could be force-fed even more to the star receiver this weekend, and he should be considered a must-start in all formats.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught six of nine targets for 116 yards and a touchdown during the team's 20-16 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. The star receiver made his first start since Week 1 of the regular season and did not disappoint, fighting for the ball in tight coverage and breaking multiple tackles on his way to a solid fantasy performance. His highlight catch came in the second quarter when he caught a 22-yard touchdown in a scrap to maintain procession from the defender. It was a typical A.J. Brown performance against a solid Browns pass defense. The 27-year-old will look ahead to next week when the team goes on the road to take on the division-rival New York Giants. Brown will be a top-tier play again in Week 7.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) is ready to make his return to the field in Week 6 as the Eagles host the Browns on Sunday. The 27-year-old suffered a hamstring injury after the season's first game and has been sidelined since. With the early bye week, there was optimism that Brown had enough time to rest and return this weekend, and the Eagles made that official on Friday. DeVonta Smith (concussion) will also be good to go after clearing the concussion protocol this week, giving Philadelphia and quarterback Jalen Hurts their top two receiving options back. Cleveland is giving up nearly 30 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position through five weeks and has been a mess the last three weeks. Fantasy managers can treat Brown as a top-five option in his return to the field this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) are both on track to return to action in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns after putting in a second straight day with a full practice on Thursday. Brown hasn't played since catching half of his 10 targets for 119 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 win over the Green Bay Packers in Brazil, but he's made nice progress coming out of the bye week and should be returned to all starting fantasy lineups for a tilt against Cleveland this Sunday in Philly. Smith suffered a concussion in Week 3 and was held out of the Week 4 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He, too, should be returned to all fantasy lineups, although he still needs to gain final clearance from the concussion protocol. The return of both Brown and Smith is bad news for tight end Dallas Goedert but is great news for quarterback Jalen Hurts' fantasy value.
