The Eagles are reportedly set to sign wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown to a one-year deal.
Jordan Schultz reports the deal is worth up to $6.5 million.
Brown’s Recent Performance
Brown, a former Ravens first-round pick, caught 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns last season and still separates from coverage.
The Eagles’ Wide Receiver Line-up
Philadelphia already has a dynamic duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.
Since signing the extension, Smith logged 68 catches for 833 yards and eight touchdowns in the 2024 Super Bowl season and 77 catches for 1,008 yards and four touchdowns in 2025. Since that time, overall, Smith has 145 catches, for 1,841 yards and 12 touchdowns.
The 1,841 yards is 21st in the NFL since that time, and his 145 catches are tied with teammate A.J. Brown for 17th. Brown’s 2,082 yards are 14th since that time.
Depth Behind the Stars
The depth behind the two superstars is the reason this signing happened.
Johnny Wilson looked like a player who could unseat Jahan Dotson during last summer’s training camp before suffering a torn ACL. He’ll return, while second-year wide receiver Darius Cooper is a player with huge upside.
Potential Trade Implications
Brown could depart the Eagles via a trade at any point after June 1, when his dead salary cap hit would decrease drastically.
