The Philadelphia Eagles have signed free agent wide receiver Samori Toure amid speculation regarding a potential trade involving star WR A.J. Brown, who could be sent to the New England Patriots in the next 12-to-24 hours. Toure, a 28-year-old who has played two seasons with the Green Bay Packers and appeared in one game with the New Orleans Saints in 2025, may face challenges in securing a roster spot. Philadelphia has already acquired several wideouts this offseason, including Hollywood Brown, Dontayvion Wicks, Elijah Moore, and rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon. DeVonta Smith is expected to lead the receiving group if Brown is traded. The Eagles seem poised to continue adjusting their wide receiver depth chart.
