A.J. Brown had a stellar season in 2024, playing for the Eagles. However, he’s been balling out for the last three seasons and hardly anyone has taken any notice. Due to his outstanding seasons, he’s been selected to the All-Pro 2nd team in three consecutive years. This is not easy to do as you have to stay consistent with your play and most importantly, with your health.

Brown has only played in 6 seasons so far and has already been selected to the Pro-Bowl thrice and also finished 3rd in the offensive rookie of the year voting.

Brown finished the 2024 season with 1079 receiving yards, 7 receiving touchdowns, 67 receptions, while playing 13 games. He was utilized less but more efficiently in 2024, as the Eagles acquired Saquon Barkley to relieve Brown of some of the pressure. The fit has worked wonderfully for both the players as their plays have helped the Eagles reach all the way into the NFC Championship round.

I cover the National Football League and things cannot get better than that. I always dreamed to play football or basketball professionally since I’m built like a Running Back. But now that I can’t, since I’m technically in the “Unc” age, I thought why not pick a career in sports industry? So here I am, doing what I love, and hoping that the Commanders win the Super Bowl. I give love to players when it’s due, but can be critical about their performances at the same time. Enough about me, now let my articles do all the talking.
