3 Duds (& 2 Studs) From Eagles Week 6 Loss vs. Jets
By Randy Gurzi
Stud: A.J. Brown, Wide Receiver
A.J. Brown is an absolute beast. Last year, the Philadelphia Eagles knew they needed someone who could make plays downfield in order to take their offense to the next level, which is why they gave up a first-round pick for Brown.
In his first season in Philly, he was unstoppable with 88 receptions for 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns. So far in 2023, he's off to another hot start with 541 yards on 35 receptions through the first five games. And he just keeps adding to those numbers.
Brown saw the ball coming his way early and often, with 89 yards on five receptions in the first half — although none were as exciting as the 49-yard catch and run he had in the second quarter to set up the team's second touchdown of the day.
The ball kept going his way and he continued to haul it in. Brown finished with 131 yards on seven receptions and was by far the best offensive player on the field for the Eagles in Week 6.
To further highlight how great Brown has been this year, he set a record with his performance, becoming the first player in franchise history to record more than 125 yards receiving in four straight games.
