Rotowire
Brown (knee) said Friday that he'll play Sunday at Washington, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Limited by knee injury
Rotowire
Brown (knee/rest) was limited in Thursday's practice.
Brown was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's walk-through due to rest, so having his knee included as a reason for practice restrictions one day later indicates his health is compromised somewhat. The wideout was on the receiving end of an apparent hip-drop tackle and was slow to get to his feet late in this past Sunday's win against the Steelers. With an injury now evident, Brown's status will be monitored in advance of Sunday's Week 16 road matchup versus the Commanders.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Solid showing in win
Rotowire
Brown recorded eight receptions on 11 targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Steelers.
Brown made headlines throughout the week after being critical of Philadelphia's passing offense, but he did his part to quiet that storyline by making a season-best eight receptions while topping 100 yards for the fifth time in 11 contests. His performance was highlighted by long receptions 21, 20, 19 and 17 yards as well as a five-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. Brown's strong performance was almost soured late in the game, when he got up slowly after an apparent hip-drop tackle, though he was spotted moving fine in the locker room following the win, per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Quiet against Carolina
Rotowire
Brown caught all four of his targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Panthers.
The fifth-year wideout tied for his lowest target volume of the season, but Brown still led the Eagles in receiving yards on a day in which Jalen Hurts threw for just 108 yards. With Saquon Barkley clearly the focal point of the Philly offense, it's become harder for Brown to make a big impact, and he's scored only one TD over the last seven games while posting a 32-512-1 line on 42 targets. He'll try to turn things around in Week 15 against the Steelers.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Silent in second half of win
Rotowire
Brown caught five of six targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens.
Brown accounted for 66 of Jalen Hurts' 104 first-half passing yards, but Hurts threw for only 14 yards after halftime, with none of those going to Brown. While Brown has at least 65 receiving yards in eight of nine appearances this season, this was a disappointing performance from the star wideout considering the Ravens came into Sunday with the second-most receiving yards and second-most receiving touchdowns allowed to wide receivers. Brown will look to bounce back in Week 14 against the Panthers.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Cracks century mark and scores TD
Rotowire
Brown hauled in six of seven targets for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Rams.
Brown tied his previous season-best mark of six receptions while recording his fourth 100-plus yard game in the process. The 27-year-old now sports a 39-727-4 receiving line through eight active games, which is a tick below the averages of 97 receptions, 1,476 yards and nine touchdowns the wideout averaged in his first two seasons with Philadelphia. Brown should continue to be treated as WR1 in fantasy when the Eagles take on the Ravens next Sunday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Leading receiver in blowout win
Rotowire
Brown caught five of seven targets for 109 yards in Sunday's 34-6 win over the Cowboys.
Brown was the only offensive player for either squad to crack the century mark in yardage Sunday. It was a reassuring performance for managers after the star wideout missed practice earlier in the week with a barking knee. Brown remains one of the elite wideouts in the NFL heading into a Week 11 matchup against Washington on Thursday Night Football.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Clear for Week 10
Rotowire
Brown (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Dallas.
The same can be said for DeVonta Smith (hamstring), who followed a DNP-LP-FP practice regimen this week, and Dallas Goedert (hamstring), who will putting an end to a three-game absence this weekend. With the Eagles offense back to full capacity for just the second time this season, Brown will have more competition for targets but may actually be put in better positions to succeed Sunday against a Cowboys defense that has allowed the ninth-most YPT (8.27) to opposing wide receivers on the campaign.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Logs full practice Thursday
Rotowire
Brown (knee) was a full practice participant Thursday.
Brown missed the second half of this past Sunday's game against the Jaguars due to a knee injury, and after undergoing an MRI on Monday, he was deemed day-to-day. He then was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough before logging every practice rep one day later, effectively clearing him ahead of Sunday's contest at Dallas. Fellow WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) followed up a DNP on Wednesday with a capped session Thursday, so a question mark remains in the Eagles' receiving corps for Week 10.

Rotowire
Brown (knee) was listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough.
After missing the second half of this past Sunday's win against the Jaguars due to a knee injury, Brown underwent an MRI that eventually revealed the issue to be a minor one that left him day-to-day. With a capped session behind him to start Week 10 prep, he's at least put himself on a path to being active Sunday in Dallas. Brown will have two more chances to get back to full participation this week.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Practicing Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown (knee) will practice Wednesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Brown received good news from an MRI after missing the second half of a 28-23 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday that the wideout is considered day-to-day, and Brown's practice participation Wednesday confirms that his injury is a minor concern.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Considered day-to-day
Rotowire
Brown (knee) will be considered day-to-day, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Brown's tests on his knee came back clean, and Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer had previously reported that Brown wasn't looking at an extended absence. It sounds like Brown might have a real chance to play next Sunday against the Cowboys despite not playing the second half against the Jaguars in Week 9.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Not looking at extended absence
Rotowire
Brown (knee) is not expected to miss a significant amount of time, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Coach Nick Sirianni refused to address the status of Brown in his session with the media Monday. Brown came out of the locker room after halftime but quickly went back down the tunnel early in the third quarter before the Eagles even took the field on offense. His day was over, and Brown was ruled out for the remainder of the Week 9 contest. Brown underwent an MRI on Monday, but it sounds like he avoided a serious injury. It's unclear what his availability will be for next Sunday's date with the Cowboys. Philly will return to practice Wednesday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Scheduled for MRI
Rotowire
Brown is slated to undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the knee injury he sustained in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Jaguars, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
Brown recorded two receptions for 36 yards on four targets before being ruled out of the game shortly after halftime. The Eagles' initial belief seems to be that Brown's injury isn't too serious, but the MRI will help clarify his status. The Eagles are entering a stretch of two games in five days, with the team set to play the Cowboys on Sunday in Week 10 before hosting the Commanders on Thursday Night Football in Week 11.

Rotowire
Brown (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Brown was deemed questionable to return around halftime, and he has been downgraded to out for the remainder of the game. Further updates on Brown's knee injury will likely surface after the game.

Rotowire
Brown left Sunday's game against the Jaguars with a knee injury.
Just before halftime, Brown was slow to get to his feet following a hit, and he didn't take the field for the second half, instead remaining in the locker room. If he's unable to return, he'll finish Week 9 with two catches (on four targets) for 36 yards.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Finds end zone in Sunday's win
Rotowire
Brown caught all five of his targets for 89 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-3 win over the Giants.
The Eagles didn't need to air it out much in the rout, as Jalen Hurts attempted only 14 passes in total, and Brown wound up as the only Philadelphia pass catcher with more than two receptions or 11 yards. Most of his production came in the first half, highlighted by a 41-yard score on a deep toss by Hurts down the sideline. Brown has found the end zone in all three of his games this season sandwiched around a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, a streak he'll look to continue in Week 8 against the Bengals.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Big day in return to lineup
Rotowire
Brown caught six of nine targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns.
Seeing his first action since straining a hamstring in the Eagles' season opener, Brown immediately re-established his chemistry with quarterback Jalen Hurts, with the wideout's return highlighted by a 22-yard TD in the second quarter. Brown has a stunning 11-235-2 line on 19 targets in his two games this year, and with Philly's passing game roaring to life, he could pop again in Week 7 against the Giants.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Ruled out for Sunday
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
With both DeVonta Smith (concussion) and Brown out, the Eagles' passing attack will have to rely on a collective group of newcomers between Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Parris Campbell and John Ross. As a result, Saquon Barkley could be a featured option continuously out of the backfield, but should the Eagles find themselves behind early, it's anyone's guess as to who becomes the featured receiver.
