Patriots WR DeMario Douglas comments on potential A.J. Brown trade

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas expressed his enthusiasm about the possibility of A.J. Brown joining the team after June 1. Brown, a three-time Pro Bowler, is expected to be traded from the Philadelphia Eagles, which would significantly boost the Patriots' receiving corps. Douglas, who had a breakout season in 2024 but saw a drop in production in 2025, acknowledged that Brown's presence would likely push him further down the depth chart. The Patriots have added other receivers, including Romeo Doubs, who is anticipated to be the team's WR2. Brown's connection with Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel might facilitate the trade, with reports suggesting the Eagles' asking price is a first-round pick.
