Posted September 14, 20241 yr https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/a-j-brown-pops-up-on-practice-report-with-a-hamstring-injury A.J. Brown pops up on practice report with a hamstring injury By Charean Williams Receiver A.J. Brown was a surprise addition to the Eagles’ practice report Friday. He was limited with a hamstring injury. Brown caught five passes for 119 yards and a touchdown in the season-opening win over the Packers. He did not play in the Eagles’ playoff loss to the Bucs last season because of a knee injury, but Brown has played every game since joining the Eagles before the 2022 season. The Eagles will release their status report for Monday Night Football on Saturday, which will provide more insight into the severity of Brown’s injury. The Eagles also added backup offensive tackle Fred Johnson to their practice report as limited with a thumb injury. The rest of the report remained the same as Thursday with defensive tackle Milton Williams (foot) limited and cornerback Isaiah Rodgers (hand) and linebacker Devin White (ankle) full participants. Rodgers and White were inactive for the season opener.
September 14, 20241 yr Sounds like "tightness." Not too worried. I expect he'll have no injury designation on the final injury report before the game.

September 14, 20241 yr 4 hours ago, Parrot Head said: Was this reported somewhere? I haven’t seen any details come out yet. What I said wasn't reported. It's my presumption based on how the Eagles have handled "tightness" in starters the last few years. He didn't leave practice, he was LP --- which is a good indication they are just trying to get it to loosen up through stretching and mild activity. Once again, it's just speculation on my part.
September 14, 20241 yr Did not practice today but I’m sure this is just precautionary (he doesn’t need to practice). But I also wouldn’t doubt he is held out of Monday’s game … also precautionary … so as to not aggravate the injury and make it worse. https://www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/aj-brown-hamstring-injury-week-2-falcons-nick-sirianni-devonta-smith/615387/

September 14, 20241 yr Given the opponent is the Falcons, if I were the Eagles I would not be at all hesitant to rest AJ for a week. Smith and Dotson on the outside with Covey taking the slot snaps. Elevate Parris Campbell from the Practice Squad. If Wilson also needs a hamstring rest, then have Jenkins take his "big WR" snaps.

I love it
September 15, 20241 yr Sucks but as I said yesterday I would way rather him miss a game or two than try to play and make it worse and miss 4-6 weeks.
September 15, 20241 yr Ok, rest him so his injury doesn't get worse. Smitty, Datson, Goedert, Barkley. Get it done.
