While rumors have suggested that AJ Brown is as good as gone this offseason, a trade has yet to be made. A deal can certainly be made soon, though, as early offseason reports claimed that a trade likely would happen come June. With the saga continuing into the summer, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts finally opened up a little bit about the situation.

Hurts, who is 27 years old, initially took a moment to reflect on his time playing alongside the seven-year veteran wide receiver by hilariously taking a sip of water during the question. It is a tough scenario for Hurts, Brown, and the Eagles, and it appears the star quarterback needed a second before giving his official response.
Once the three-time Pro Bowler eased the tension in the room, Jalen Hurts reiterated the “if” part of AJ Brown being traded. Hurts acknowledged the trade rumors in Philly have been ongoing, but ultimately stated he’s enjoyed every second playing alongside Brown, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team.
“There’s an ‘if’ — obviously, it’s been a lingering thing,” said Hurts. “But nothing can replace all the greatness that we achieved together.”

With Hurts as his quarterback, the 28-year-old wideout has surpassed the 1,000-yard mark in each of his four seasons in Philadelphia, totaling 339 receptions, 5,034 receiving yards, and 32 touchdowns during that span. The two have also won a championship together, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX.
Trade rumors have AJ Brown going to the New England Patriots to reunite with his former head coach, Mike Vrabel. Meanwhile, the Eagles potentially found their replacement for Brown after selecting Makai Lemon in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
