A.J. Brown Nears 5,000 Receiving Yards, Chasing Eagles History

A.J. Brown is locked in a tight race with teammate DeVonta Smith to be the first to reach 5,000 receiving yards as an Eagle. After trailing by as much as 229 yards, Brown has significantly closed the gap over the past month and is now only 19 yards behind Smith. Brown currently sits at 4,871 receiving yards. Both players are on the verge of becoming the ninth and tenth members of the Eagles' exclusive 5,000-yard club, with Brent Celek (4,998 yards) being the next target on the franchise's all-time list.
