The Philadelphia Eagles have reportedly informed interested teams that the trade price for star wide receiver A.J. Brown will not be lowered, effectively shutting the door on a potential blockbuster move this offseason, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Per @RapSheet, the Eagles have maintained an "astronomical" asking price for the Pro Bowler, signaling their intent to keep him as a cornerstone of the offense in 2026. General Manager Howie Roseman reinforced this stance during recent media availability at the NFL Scouting Combine, stating that the organization is focused on retaining elite talent rather than subtracting it.
The decision to keep A.J. Brown follows the hiring of new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. Internal reports indicate that the early feedback on Brown’s role within the revamped scheme is highly positive. Brown remains under contract through the 2029 season and is coming off a 2025 campaign where he recorded over 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth consecutive year.
Several teams, including the New England Patriots, had reportedly explored the possibility of a trade, but the Eagles' firm valuation has stalled those discussions. Philadelphia currently views Brown as a non-negotiable part of their roster heading into the new league year.
