Eagles receive huge A.J. Brown injury update

The Philadelphia Eagles may have dodged a huge bullet with star wide receiver A.J. Brown. 

Brown exited Sunday's matchup in the first quarter after he was tackled by New York Giants cornerback Nick McCloud.  

Brown stayed on the ground favoring his right knee before getting up and walking himself to the blue medical tent and then to the locker room. 

After further examination, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Brown's ACL is "intact."

That's great news for an Eagles team that is en route to the playoffs win or lose and is already dealing with an ankle injury to their No. 2 receiver DeVonta Smith. 

Brown remained questionable until he was officially ruled out at halftime.
