Report: Details emerge on AJ Brown's extension with Eagles

The Tennessee Titans sent shockwaves through the NFL by trading AJ Brown in a blockbuster deal on Thursday. It turns out the former Ole Miss star is getting paid in the process.

Brown is receiving a four-year, $100 million deal with the Eagles, including $57 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Tennessee acquired Philadelphia’s No. 18 overall pick with the deal and selected former Arkansas standout Treylon Burks with that selection.

It’s also the second major deal involving a wide receiver after the Baltimore Ravens traded Marquise Brown to the Arizona Cardinals, reuniting him with former Oklahoma teammate Kyler Murray. The Eagles also traded up earlier in the draft, acquiring the Houston Texans’ No. 13 overall pick and taking former Georgia defensive lineman Jordan Davis.

AJ Brown is on the move.

The Tennessee Titans are trading Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for the No. 18 overall pick and another third-round pick, according to ESPN’s Dianna Russini. It’s the second trade of the day for the Eagles, who traded up with the Houston Texans to take former Georgia defensive lineman Jordan Davis earlier in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.

In three years with the Titans, Brown played in 43 games and started 36. He totaled 2,995 receiving yards and 24 touchdowns during that time after Tennessee drafted him out of Ole Miss as the No. 51 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. His best year came in 2020 when he hauled in 70 receptions for 1,075 yards and 11 touchdowns to earn his first Pro Bowl appearance.

Last year in 13 appearances, Brown had 63 receptions for 869 yards and five touchdowns for Tennessee. Now, he’s going to Philadelphia, where he’ll pair with Devonta Smith and quarterback Jalen Hurts.
