Eagles News: Update on A.J. Brown’s status for Week 4 matchup vs. Jaguars

After not practicing all week, Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown is expected to play on Sunday against the Jaguars.

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that he expects Brown to be in the lineup during his Friday press conference. While it was initially unknown the personal reasons why Brown wasn’t at practice, it appears it was due to the arrival of his second child.

Congratulations to the Brown family from all of us here at The Liberty Line. As we know, family always comes first. It’s nice to see Philadelphia knows how to handle family and safety matters, unlike the Miami Dolphins.

Brown has immediately impacted the Eagle’s offense since joining the team, catching 20 passes for 309 yards and a touchdown in his first three games.

Brown scoring a touchdown this Sunday might be a lock (+115) after seeing that video. I’d imagine he will play with extra pride this weekend. Not to mention, he will have the Philly crowd backing him at Lincoln Financial Field.
