The rich get richer this off-season as another Eagles player has earned the honor of earning a spot on the NFL's Top 100 list.

NFL peers recognized Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown as the 29th-best player going into the 2025 season. Brown joins Jalen Carter (No. 43), Quinyon Mitchell (No. 49), Cooper DeJean (No. 60), and Jordan Mailata (No. 69) as the Eagles to be announced so far.

The good times keep on rolling for Brown

Despite missing four games last year, Brown was the Eagles' number one receiving option, leading Philadelphia with 1,079 receiving yards, while amassing five games of over 100 yards receiving. Brown has earned two Pro Bowls and three second-team All-Pro honors since joining the Eagles in 2022.

The acquisition of Brown has been one of Eagles general manager Howie Roseman's best moves since his tenure. The Eagles traded a draft pick to the Titans, which was used to draft Treylon Burks, who is no longer with the Titans. While Brown has missed time, he has continued to perform at a high level, that's continued to garner accolades.

Currently, Brown is not participating in practice due to a hamstring injury as a precaution to ensure that there are no setbacks. While Brown has been sidelined, he's still been participating in drills and throwing to wide receivers. While head coach Nick Sirianni has been extremely transparent about Brown's status as of now, there is no need for concern about his status going into Week 1.

Per his media availability last week, Sirianni outlined his plan for Brown and others.

"He’s got three weeks to get right. I saw him when I was at the practice. He was moving around on the sideline and certainly engaged. So, A.J. Brown back to work at some point in the near future it feels like is the hope for the Eagles at this point."

The Eagles have their final preseason game on August 22nd against the Jets, as a final dress rehearsal for the 2025 regular season.
