A.J. Brown expected to have breakout season with Patriots in 2026

Jason McCourty, an analyst for ESPN, predicts A.J. Brown will excel with the New England Patriots in the upcoming 2026 season. After a challenging year with the Philadelphia Eagles, Brown is now poised for a fresh start following his trade to the Patriots. Joining a talented quarterback in Drake Maye and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, Brown aims to prove himself after expressing dissatisfaction with his previous team's performance. Last season, despite struggles, he amassed over 1,000 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, setting the stage for a potentially impressive season ahead.
