Rams General Manager Les Snead says he was interested in trading for Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown.
“We chatted with Philly, nothing worked out,” Snead said on _PFT Live_. “There were talks, we had discussions, didn’t work out. That happens.”
Snead did not say why the trade didn’t work out, but the Rams have confirmed that they also [discussed trading Davante Adams](https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/yes-the-rams-would-have-traded-davante-adams-if-they-had-traded-for-a-j-brown) away if they had acquired Brown. Snead said he and head coach Sean McVay both believe in being upfront with players if there’s a chance they could be traded, so they told Adams it was possible.
“As soon as any of those discussions take a certain level, we should definitely make that phone call,” Snead said. “I think all players appreciate the transparency.”
The Eagles potentially trading Brown has been one of the most-discussed stories of this NFL offseason. It hasn’t happened yet, but Snead confirmed it’s not just a much-discussed story among fans and the media. Those discussions are happening in NFL front offices as well.
