The Philadelphia Eagles traded three-time Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots for a 2028 first-round pick and 2027 fifth-round selection, the team announced Monday.
Brown will reunite with head coach Mike Vrabel in New England. Vrabel coached Brown from 2019 to 2021 with the Tennessee Titans before the club sent him to the Eagles for first and third-round selections.
“Playing for this city has been an honor, and I’m thankful for every moment I had in Midnight green,” Brown wrote in a farewell message to the Eagles on Instagram.
