Not, not A.J. Brown — at least not yet. This is bringing a WR in, Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers.
The trade reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter looks like this:
- Eagles get: WR Dontayvion Wicks
- Packers get: 2026 fifth-round pick, 2027 seventh-round pick
Schefter adds that Wicks is signing a one-year, $12.5 million extension with the Eagles.
In 2025, Wicks had 30 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns. He has 108 career NFL catches after being drafted by the Packers in the fifth round of 2023 out of Virginia.
And maybe, just maybe, his acquisition has meaning toward an A.J. Brown trade.

This has to, by default, push the Eagles more in the direction of eventually trading Brown.
The money still makes it more likely that Philly will trade Brown after June 1, not before, but it's moving in that direction.
This offseason, the Eagles have added both Hollywood Brown and now Wicks. They also signed Elijah Moore in late March.
They still have DeVonta Smith, no matter what they do with A.J. Brown.
They also have young receivers Darius Cooper and Johnny Wilson.
If the Eagles happen to draft a WR, too, it'll be even more writing on the wall for an A.J. Brown trade.
Any teams that are interested will certainly perk their ears up after this Wicks deal. Something might be brewing soon enough.
