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.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Suffers knee injury Sunday
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. DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson, Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson are the current healthy wide receivers for the Eagles.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Eclipses 80 receiving yards in win
Rotowire
Brown secured five of six targets for 84 yards in the Eagles' 37-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Brown finished just a reception and a yard shy of the team lead in those categories behind DeVonta Smith, extending his season-opening streak of 80-plus-yard games to four. The talented receiver was held without a touchdown for the first time his season, but he'll carry plenty of momentum and a seemingly safe floor into a Week 9 home matchup against a beatable Jaguars defense.

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: Logs full practice
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) was a full practice participant Wednesday.
With no limitations coming out of a Week 5 bye, Brown will play for the first time since Week 1 when the Eagles host the Browns this Sunday. Fellow wideouts DeVonta Smith (concussion) and Johnny Wilson (concussion) also were full practice participants, giving quarterback Jalen Hurts his full complement of pass catchers.

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.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Questionable after practicing
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.
Brown returned to practice Friday as a limited participant, which could set up a game-time decision ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. Fellow Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (concussion) has been ruled out after missing practice all week, but he'll have a good chance to avoid multiple absences thanks to a Week 5 bye. It's possible the upcoming bye influences the team's approach to Brown, knowing he'll have two weeks to continue his recovery before the next game if he doesn't play this Sunday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Returning to practice
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) is stretching with his teammates and preparing to practice Friday, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
The extent of Brown's participation and how he feels afterward will determine whether he's given a real chance to return for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay. It's his first practice since Sept. 13, when he initially injured his hamstring a few days before the Eagles' Week 2 contest. Fellow Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (concussion) seems to be absent again Friday, making him unlikely to play this Sunday in Tampa.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Not spotted at practice
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) wasn't present at the start of Thursday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Brown hasn't taken part in drills since injuring his hamstring on Friday, Sept. 13, missing two games in the process. If he's listed as a non-participant again Thursday, he'll have just one more opportunity for on-field work this week. The same can be said for DeVonta Smith, who suffered a concussion this past Sunday in New Orleans. With Britain Covey (shoulder) landing on injured reserve Tuesday, Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson are the current healthy wide receivers on the Eagles' active roster.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Listed as non-participant
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.
The Eagles confirmed that both Brown and DeVonta Smith (concussion) missed Wednesday's walkthrough, leaving Jahan Dotson, Parris Campbell and Johnny Wilson as the top wide receivers. Brown hasn't practiced since injuring his hamstring Sept. 13, and the continued absences suggest he's in real danger of missing a third straight game when the Eagles play at Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Not practicing Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) was not spotted on the field in the portion of Wednesday's walk-through practice that was open to the media, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Brown and DeVonta Smith (concussion) are both sitting out Wednesday's walkthrough practice. Brown has missed consecutive games and hasn't practiced since Sept. 13, while Smith remains in the concussion protocol due to a hit to the head suffered in Philadelphia's win over New Orleans this past weekend. While Brown's activity will need to be monitored Thursday and Friday to get a better sense of his availability for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, it's worth noting that the Eagles are on bye Week 5. If the Eagles have any lingering concerns about the star wide receiver's hamstring, he could be rested for another game before potentially making his return to action Week 6 versus Cleveland.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Ruled out
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Brown hasn't practiced since injuring his hamstring last Friday and now is confirmed to be out for a second straight game. Fellow Eagles wideouts Jahan Dotson and Britain Covey both saw their snap shares rise from Week 1 to Week 2, but TE Dallas Goedert is the safest bet for targets and yards after star wideout DeVonta Smith. It's unclear at this point if Brown has a realistic chance to return for Week 4 at Tampa Bay on Sunday, Sept. 29.

Brown (hamstring) isn't practicing Friday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
He hasn't participated at all since injuring his hamstring during practice last Friday. Brown missed the loss to the Falcons on Monday and is unlikely to play against the Saints come Sunday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Doesn't practice Thursday
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) didn't take part in Thursday's practice.
Brown unsurprisingly has kicked off Week 3 prep with back-to-back absences due to a hamstring concern that he expects will sideline him for a few weeks. Friday's injury report may rule him out ahead of Sunday's contest at New Orleans, which would mark a second DNP in a row as a result of the issue he sustained in practice last Friday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Sits out practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
Brown relayed to Lisa Salters of ESPN on Monday that he expects to be out a few weeks due to the hamstring injury that he suffered in practice last Friday, which kept him from playing in Monday's loss to the Falcons. As such, it may be some time before Brown is able to mix into drills. In the meantime, wideout DeVonta Smith, tight end Dallas Goedert and running back Saquon Barkley will be the top pass catchers available to quarterback Jalen Hurts.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Expects to miss couple of weeks
Rotowire
Brown told Lisa Salters of ESPN on Monday that he expects to miss a couple of weeks due to the hamstring injury he suffered at Friday's practice.
Brown is active for Monday's game against the Falcons, and the wideout already appears resigned to missing the Eagles' Week 3 game Sunday in New Orleans, as well. The Eagles haven't confirmed a recovery timeline for Brown, but the team will likely be motivated to err on the side of caution and hold him out until he's no longer at risk of returning prematurely and aggravating the hamstring injury. Assuming he does miss more time, wideouts DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson and tight end Dallas Goedert should be the prime beneficiaries in terms of targets.
