The Los Angeles Rams considered a trade for wide receiver A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles but ultimately abandoned the effort. Key reasons included difficulty in trading Davante Adams and concerns over Brown's knee issues. The Rams previously explored a deal that would have involved a 2028 first-round pick, but when they could not find a trade partner for Adams, they chose to retain him for another season. A potential acquisition of Brown would have prevented the Rams from pursuing Myles Garrett.
