Short answer: Nope — A.J. Brown is a Patriot now.
The Eagles traded him to New England on June 1 for a 2028 first-rounder and a 2027 fifth-round pick. He's reuniting with Mike Vrabel (his old Titans head coach) and pairs with Romeo Doubs to give Drake Maye a formidable receiving corps.
As for what it means for both sides, here's what the experts are saying:
Underdog's Josh & Hayden broke it down: "It finally happened. AJ Brown is a New England Patriot." They discussed how the trade reshapes both offenses — with DeVonta Smith stepping up as WR1 in Philly and Brown pairing with Maye in New England.
The Fantasy Headliners called the fantasy fallout "MASSIVE," noting the trade had been anticipated since an April 30 report that it would go through on June 1.
Matt Harmon (Reception Perception) raised questions about Brown's recent efficiency decline, saying "the drop off is from being one of the best receivers in the NFL" — though he acknowledged he hopes he's wrong about the regression concerns.
So yes — Brown is a Patriot, and the Eagles' WR room is now led by DeVonta Smith with Hollywood Brown as the WR2.
