• Eagles' Sydney Brown: Logs six stops in starting role

  22D ago • By RotoWire

  Brown finished Friday's Week 13 loss to Chicago with six tackles (three solo). Brown was on the field for all but two of Philadelphia's 87 defensive snaps as he moved into a starting role as a result of Andrew Mukuba (ankle) landing on IR on Wednesday. Mukuba could very well be out for the remainder of the season, so Brown figures to retain the starting role moving forward. Prior to Friday, he had been working mostly on special teams this season.

• Eagles' Sydney Brown: Expected to take over as starter

  26D ago • By RotoWire

  Brown is expected to take over as a starting safety for the Eagles following the injury to Andrew Mukuba (ankle) in last Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports. Mukuba is likely to miss at least the remainder of the regular season after suffering a fractured ankle against Dallas. Brown has started just seven of his 36 career regular-season contests during his three-year career, but he's next up alongside Reed Blankenship on the back end of the Philadelphia defense. Brown has logged just 86 defensive snaps through 11 appearances this season.

• Eagles' Sydney Brown: Limited role in 2024

  02/17/2025 • By RotoWire

  Brown finished the 2024 season with seven total tackles (six solo), while also adding two passes defensed, including one interception, and a forced fumble over 11 regular-season games. Brown saw his role on defense diminish in his second season with the Eagles, operating primarily as a special-teams option in 2024. The safety missed the first five games of the year with a knee injury, limiting his upside early in the year. Brown figures to be set to play a similar role with Philadelphia in 2025.

  Brown (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders. Brown was diagnosed with a concussion during the Eagles' Week 15 win over the Steelers. He started the week out with a DNP on Wednesday, but he managed to increase his practice participation that culminated in a full practice Friday. Brown has done enough to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols and will suit up in Sunday's NFC East showdown.

  Brown (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Brown suffered a blow to the head on the game's opening play and was evaluated for a concussion. It's unclear whether he was diagnosed with a concussion, but his day has come to an end regardless. Brown's impact is primarily on special teams, so his absence won't cause any major issues for Philadelphia's defense.
