Patriots Linked to Eagles' A.J. Brown in Potential Trade: Insider
The New England Patriots' search for a new wide receiver might be over sooner rather than later, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. While the team's offseason hasn't officially begun yet, there are indications that they could be interested in acquiring Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver A.J. Brown in a trade.
Schefter believes that Brown becomes an attractive option for the Patriots due to his impressive track record and potential fit with new coach Mike Vrabel. The Titans' departure from the team still lingers in Schefter's mind, as he recalls how much they valued Brown during their time together. In contrast, New England could benefit greatly if they bring him on board.
While the Eagles have been resistant to trading Brown due to concerns about his potential impact on the team, it seems that things may not be as simple as previously thought. Recent reports indicate that Brown asked for a trade multiple times during the 2025 regular season, which raised eyebrows among fans and front office executives alike.
However, if there's any truth to Schefter's speculation, it could work in favor of both parties involved. The Eagles would be trading away one of their top players but would receive some much-needed draft capital in return. Meanwhile, the Patriots could strengthen their receiving corps with an experienced player who has consistently logged over 1,000 yards per season.
Brown's ability to bring stability and success will undoubtedly influence New England's decision-making process.

this trade rumour got me thinking... if patriots get aj brown they might actually become a decent team 
brown is a beast on the field but i think he'd fit in well with vrabel's system 
it would be a big boost for new england especially since they can't seem to find reliable wrs 
meanwhile eagles fans are probably freaking out 
if schefter's right this could be the trade that makes patriots relevant again 
. If this trade happens, I'm rooting for it all the way! Fingers crossed 
. The Patriots have been struggling to find consistency on that side, so if they can bring in someone as reliable as Brown, it could make all the difference 
. Like, they haven't had a reliable one in years... oh wait, who am I kidding? They've got a pretty solid track record of making questionable trades 
. If A.J. Brown is available and willing to take a pay cut, maybe the Pats can finally get it right for once 
this trade would be huge for the Pats! They've been struggling at WR since Belichick left and if they can get Brown on board, it'll be a major boost. He's such an explosive player that I think he'd fit in perfectly with Vrabel's system.
! If the Eagles are willing to part ways with A.J. Brown, it could be a win-win situation for both teams involved. The Patriots would get a talented receiver, while the Eagles would receive some valuable draft capital 
.
It's a tricky situation. If it happens, I hope the Patriots can make it work for both parties involved. It would be interesting to see how Brown fits in with the team and if he can lead them to a championship... 
Remember when he was with the Titans and they were all like "he's our guy"? 
Now it seems like the Eagles are getting cold feet about him? 
if they trade him away. We've seen it happen before with stars leaving for greener pastures... 
they already have mac jones and niko hilton which r pretty solid imo... aj brown is great and all but i dont think he fits with mike vrabel's system as much as ppl make it out to be 
. They need someone who can be reliable and make big plays down the field. So yeah, it's a tough trade to swing, but if Brown wants out of Philly that badly, maybe this is his chance to get to a team that's gonna give him the stability he needs 
. also, remember how the titans valued him? like, what changed? 
. not convinced this trade is gonna happen 
! A.J. Brown is literally one of the top receivers in the league right now & the Pats would be insane for him 
! It's all about winning in this league & if Brown wants out, maybe he knows something we don't 
... anyway, back to this A.J. Brown thing, I mean, 1,000 yards per season is wild! You could just imagine yourself playing some Madden with that kind of receiver 
. Maybe they think he'd thrive under Mike Vrabel's coaching? What do you guys think about a possible trade for AJ Brown?
