Eagles WR A.J. Brown Returns To NFL Top 100 List
For the second time in his career, Philadelphia Eagles receiver A.J. Brown has been voted one of the NFL's elite players by his peers.
The two-time Pro Bowl receiver came in at No. 22 on the annual NFL Top 100 Rankings, as voted by the league's players.
He will now join a bunch of Eagles teammates who have already been selected, including receiver DeVonta Smith (No. 100), cornerback Darius Slay (No. 65), linebacker Haason Reddick (No. 48), offensive tackle Lane Johnson (No. 41), and center Jason Kelce (No.33). And as the list continues to be released, it is likely that Brown's quarterback, Jalen Hurts, will be joining him in the NFL Top 100 Rankings.
After missing out last year, the Eagles receiver makes a return to the rankings. Brown's high ranking this season can be attributed to his outstanding performance in 2022. Following his trade from the Tennessee Titans during the 2022 NFL Draft, he quickly established a strong connection with Hurts and became the Eagles' primary target on offense. With an impressive 88 receptions for 1,496 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns, Brown played a critical role in propelling the Eagles' offense all the way to Super Bowl LVII, where they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs, 38-35.
As Brown enters his second season in coach Nick Sirianni's offense, he aims to reclaim his position as the Eagles' top target. His role will be crucial in helping the team reach the Super Bowl for the second consecutive year.
