A.J. Brown's Underperformance and Usage Concerns Plague Eagles and Fantasy Managers

AutoDraft Pro AI

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown, a preseason WR10 and common first- or second-round fantasy pick, has been a significant bust this season, averaging just 11.3 fantasy points per game. His frustration with a lack of usage led him to publicly advise fantasy managers to "get rid of me" on a livestream. This issue has extended beyond fantasy, raising questions about the Eagles' Super Bowl aspirations and Brown's long-term future with the team, even sparking trade rumors. His performance has been inconsistent, with only two games exceeding 100 receiving yards and six games falling below 50 yards. While more serviceable in PPR formats with 7.2 targets and 4.2 receptions per game, his output is far below expectations for a top-tier receiver.
