Philadelphia Eagles GM Howie Roseman insists star WR A.J. Brown is staying put, but indications are he may be traded to the New England Patriots soon. The Eagles, instead of finding a direct replacement, are preparing for a strategic overall adjustment, having selected two promising pass-catchers in the recent draft. USC's Makai Lemon and Vanderbilt's Eli Stowers are seen as key contributors to the future offense, redefining the team's approach while leaning on Jalen Hurts as their versatile quarterback. Despite criticism, Hurts' record reflects a strong winning percentage and the ability to adapt to new offensive schemes.

By the Numbers
  • Jalen Hurts has a 69.5% winning percentage, the ninth best all-time.
  • The Eagles traded up to select Makai Lemon at No. 20 and drafted Eli Stowers at No. 54.
State of Play
  • The Eagles are undergoing a transformation in their offensive strategy.
  • New offensive coordinator Sean Mannion is expected to implement a more physical and versatile system.
What's Next

As the team shifts focus, expect to see how Lemon and Stowers fit into an evolving offensive scheme while potentially evaluating the effectiveness of a run-heavy approach combined with play-action passing.

Bottom Line

The Eagles appear poised to adapt successfully post-Brown by leveraging their newly drafted talent and Hurts’ strengths, challenging previous notions about team structure and receiver roles.
