Brown's move to Philadelphia in 2022 was extremely successful, and he should be considered a top-10 Fantasy receiver in all leagues this year. Brown is worth drafting as early as Round 2 in all formats. Last year, Brown teamed with Jalen Hurts and set career highs in targets (145), catches (88) and receiving yards (1,496), and he matched his career high in touchdowns (11). His 17.6 PPR points per game was also a career high. Brown has plenty of competition for targets with DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert, but Brown is still the alpha of this receiving corps. He should have another dominant campaign if healthy, and Brown should come off the board in all leagues as early as No. 15 overall.
Brown (thigh) had eight receptions on 13 targets for 114 yards in Sunday's 42-19 loss to San Francisco.
Brown powered through a nagging thigh injury to produce his first 100-yard game since Week 8. Fellow starter DeVonta Smith caught Jalen Hurts' lone touchdown pass Sunday, but Brown finished with the team lead in targets (13) and yards (114). The star wideout's production had tapered off in recent weeks following a white-hot start to the campaign, so Sunday's gaudy receiving performance along with improved health could get him back on track. Expect Brown to be heavily involved when the Eagles face the Cowboys in a crucial NFC East matchup on Sunday Night Football in Week 14.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Cleared for flight
Rotowire
Brown (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
TE Dallas Goedert (arm) is listed as doubtful, but Jalen Hurts otherwise will have his favorite pass catchers available after all of them had practice restrictions early in the week. There's been no indication that Brown's thigh injury is serious enough to limit his workload, and he managed at least limited participation in each practice this week.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Brown (thigh) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.
Brown maintained his listed activity level from Wednesday, giving him one more chance this week to get back to full before the Eagles potentially hand him an injury designation ahead of Sunday's showdown with the 49ers. He was able to play through the thigh injury this past Sunday against the Bills on his way to a 5-37-1 line on nine targets on a 94 percent snap share. As a result, it'd be a surprise if Brown isn't available for a crucial Week 13 contest.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Hauls in TD against Buffalo
Rotowire
Brown caught five of nine targets for 37 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-34 overtime win over the Bills.
He once again took a back seat to DeVonta Smith, but Brown still made an impact, hauling in a three-yard TD strike from Jalen Hurts in the third quarter as the Eagles began their second-half comeback. Brown has gone three straight games without reaching 100 receiving yards after his record-setting run of six straight weeks with 130-plus yards, but he could rebound if a Week 13 meeting with the 49ers turns into another barn burner.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Cleared for Week 12

Brown (thigh) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Brown upgraded to full participation Friday after being listed as limited the previous two days. He's coming off his first dud of the season -- one catch for eight yards in Monday's win over Kansas City -- but is already over 1,000 receiving yards for the campaign.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Another limited listing
Rotowire
Brown (thigh) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report.
The Eagles are placing listed restrictions on Brown's activity level this week due to a thigh injury, and now Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not he heads into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game versus the Bills. As one of four players in the NFL with at least 1,000 receiving yards this season, his status of course is of interest in the fantasy realm.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Tending to thigh issue
Rotowire
Brown was a limited participant at Wednesday's walkthrough by a thigh injury.
Through 11 weeks of the current campaign, Brown has avoided showing up on Eagles injury reports, but he now is dealing with a health concern as the team prepares for Sunday's showdown with the Bills. He may need to be listed as a full participant Thursday and/or Friday in order to avoid a designation for that contest.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Just one catch in Week 11 win
Rotowire
Brown caught one of four targets for eight yards in Monday's 21-17 win over Kansas City.
Despite Brown's quiet night and the absence of starting tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm), Philadelphia improved to 9-1 thanks to three rushing touchdowns, as well as 99 receiving yards from DeVonta Smith, which tied Smith's second-highest total of the season. While Smith has exceeded 100 yards only once this season, Brown has done so six times, so the star wide receiver is likely to bounce back from this season-worst performance Week 12 against the Bills.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Sees record yardage streak end
Rotowire
Brown caught seven of nine targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys.
While Brown scored his fourth TD in the last three games on a four-yard toss from Jalen Hurts late in the third quarter, the wideout's production still felt a little disappointing after he'd set an NFL record by topping 125 receiving yards in six straight contests. Brown heads into the Eagles' bye on pace for nearly 1,900 yards on the season, keeping him within striking distance of Calvin Johnson's all-time record of 1,964, but he'll face a tough matchup on the other side of the break in a Week 11 Super Bowl rematch with Kansas City.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Extends record streak Sunday
Rotowire
Brown brought in all eight targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 38-31 win over the Commanders on Sunday.
Brown put together another signature performance that included just enough yardage to surpass Lions great Calvin Johnson for most consecutive games with 125-plus receiving yards (six). The big-bodied wideout recorded an acrobatic one-handed grab for his first touchdown from 16 yards out and later added a 25-yard grab for his second multi-score tally of the campaign. With a seemingly never-ending parade of prolific performances, Brown appears to be matchup-proof heading into a Week 9 showdown at home against the Cowboys.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Top DFS Play
Rotowire
Brown will try to set an NFL record by going six consecutive games with at least 125 yards receiving, and I expect him to hit the mark. Considering Tyreek Hill has to face New England and Ja'Marr Chase is in San Francisco, Brown may be the WR1 overall this week.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Standout performance on SNF
Rotowire
Brown hauled in 10 receptions on 15 targets for 137 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Dolphins.
Brown and the Eagles came out victorious in a primetime battle between conference contenders that featured two of the league's top wideouts Sunday. The 26-year-old bested Tyreek Hill's 11-88-1 receiving line for the Dolphins as both superstars led their respective teams with 15 targets apiece. Brown has now recorded at least 125 receiving yards in five consecutive games, tying an unofficial league record shared by Calvin Johnson (2012) and Pat Studstill (1966). Brown will look to become the sole holder of that honor if he can produce another monster receiving line against the Commanders next Sunday.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Racks up 131 yards in loss
Rotowire
Brown had seven receptions on nine targets for 131 yards in Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Jets.
Brown produced his fourth consecutive game with 125 or more receiving yards despite Philadelphia taking its first loss Sunday. The 26-year-old also finished as the Eagles' leading receiver despite his nine targets finishing third behind teammates DeVonta Smith (11) and D'Andre Swift (10). Brown's big receiving day brought his season line up to 42/672/2, with the lack of touchdowns being the only possible criticism through six strong weeks. Look for Philly's top receiver to be featured against the Dolphins next week when the two star-studded teams face off on Sunday Night Football in Week 7

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Leads team with 127 yards
Rotowire
Brown finished with six receptions and 127 yards off of eight targets in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Rams.
Brown was unable to find the end zone Sunday after his two-score effort against the Commanders in Week 4. However, the star wideout produced his third consecutive triple-digit receiving yardage day for fantasy managers following a mild start to the campaign. The red-hot Brown will now enter a Week 6 matchup against a tough Jets defense, but he remains a must-start asset in fantasy.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Hauls in two long scores in OT win
Rotowire
Brown caught nine of 13 targets for 175 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-31 overtime win over the Commanders.
The former Titan topped 130 receiving yards for the second straight game and got into the end zone for the first time in 2023, hauling in a 59-yard bomb from Jalen Hurts in the third quarter before giving the Eagles a 31-24 lead with less than two minutes left in the fourth on a 28-yard TD. Brown has a 29-414-2 line on 43 targets through four games, and he could keep rolling in Week 5 against the Rams.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Racks up 131 yards in Week 3
Rotowire
Brown caught nine of 14 targets for 131 yards in Monday's 25-11 win over Tampa Bay.
After being limited to 29 receiving yards in Week 2 against the Vikings, Brown gained 28 on Philadelphia's first pass of the game. That play set the tone for Brown's fourth game over 130 receiving yards since the start of last season. He easily led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards while setting season highs in all three categories. Brown scored 11 touchdowns in 2022, but he's still looking for his first score of 2023 heading into a Week 4 home game against the Commanders.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Kept in check during Week 2 win
Rotowire
Brown secured four of six targets for 29 yards in the Eagles' 34-28 win over the Vikings on Thursday night.
Brown tied DeVonta Smith for second in receptions but was a distant runner-up to his fellow star wideout in receiving yardage. The big-bodied wideout's uninspiring line was partly the result of Jalen Hurts' modest 23 pass attempts and D'Andre Swift's standout 175-yard tally, however, and he'll remain a candidate for his first breakout of the season in a Week 3 road contest against the Buccaneers on Monday night, Sept. 25.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Leads way in rainy conditions
Rotowire
Brown recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 25-20 win over the Patriots.
Brown and DeVonta Smith each had exactly 10 targets and seven receptions, though Brown worked more as the big-play threat. Despite rainy conditions, he had long receptions of 23 and 15 yards, each of which was based primarily on run after the catch. Given the context and typically tough matchup, it was a solid start to the new campaign for Brown.

Eagles' A.J. Brown: Not playing Saturday
Rotowire
Brown isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game in Baltimore, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
The Eagles starters aren't available for the team's exhibition opener, meaning Brown and DeVonta Smith will yield wide receiver reps to the likes of Quez Watkins, Olamide Zaccheaus and Devon Allen. Brown's next opportunity for game action is this coming Thursday versus the Browns.
