Eagles trade A.J. Brown to Patriots, impacting Cardinals in 2026
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles have traded wide receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots as of June 1, 2026. This move leaves a gap in the Eagles' receiving corps while providing the Arizona Cardinals with a potential advantage, as they are scheduled to face a Brown-less Philadelphia team on December 6. Brown had an impressive record in Philadelphia, accumulating over 1,000 receiving yards last season. The Cardinals, currently projected to have the fewest wins in the league, will benefit from Brown not being in their division or on their schedule. The earlier trade of elite pass rusher Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams adds further challenges for Arizona's upcoming season.
