The Philadelphia Eagles have needed a 3rd wide receiver option for the last few years — a role that was filled by Jahan Dotson at times, but more often than not left a lot to be desired as A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith carried the load.
Depending on what happens with a potential trade of NFL All-Pro wide receiver Brown, they may have found that solution by signing wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown to a 1-year, $6.5 million free-agent contract on Tuesday.
Breaking: TheEagles are signing formerChiefs WR Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown to a 1-year, deal worth up to $6.5M, multiple sources tell me,” NFL insider Jordan Schultz wrote on his official X account. “The explosive Brown had 49 catches for 587 yards and 5 TDs last season.”
The Eagles will be the 3rd team in 4 seasons for Brown, who spent the last 2 seasons with the Chiefs and had his only 1,000-yard receiving season with the Baltimore Ravens in 2021.
“BREAKING: The Eagles are signing WR Marquise ‘Hollywood’Brown to a 1-year, $10M deal,” Darts 2 Leek wrote on their official X account. “His projected market value was around $5.5M per year — Philly pays a premium for a one-year upside play.”
Brown Teased Reunion With 2-Time NFL MVP QB
Before signing with the Eagles, Brown teased a reunion on the Ravens with 2-time NFL MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson.
“Free agent WR Marquise Brown teasing a potential return to the Ravens on his Instagram story,” JPA Football wrote on its official X account on Monday. “A few days earlier, Lamar Jackson made a joke about him coming back to Baltimore.”
