Source: Eagles, WR Hollywood Brown agree to one-year deal
"A speed receiver who can stretch the field, Brown is expected to fill the role occupied the past two seasons by Jahan Dotson, who left for the Atlanta Falcons in free agency last week. Brown, 28, has the stronger overall resume of the two, highlighted by a 1,000-yard campaign in 2021. Last year, he caught 49 passes for 587 yards and five scores for the undermanned Chiefs."
"Brown, 28, spent the past two years with the Kansas City Chiefs, most of the time as the third receiver for quarterback Patrick Mahomes. In 16 games last season, Brown produced 49 receptions for 587 yards and five touchdowns. A year ago, Brown re-signed with the Chiefs on a one-year deal because he wanted to demonstrate that he could still be a capable receiver in the league."
"Brown entered the league as a first-round pick in 2019 by the Baltimore Ravens. Following three seasons with the Ravens -- and his role expanding in each subsequent season -- Brown was traded to the Arizona Cardinals, where he played for two years before joining Kansas City. He has 371 receptions for 4,322 yards and 33 touchdowns in seven seasons."
Hollywood Brown, a 28-year-old speed receiver, joined the Philadelphia Eagles on a one-year contract valued at up to $6.5 million. Brown replaces Jahan Dotson, who departed for the Atlanta Falcons in free agency. The veteran receiver spent the past two seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he served as their third receiver behind Patrick Mahomes. Last season, Brown caught 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns across 16 games. In Philadelphia, Brown is projected to fill a similar third-receiver role behind DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown, though his role could expand if A.J. Brown is traded. Brown's career includes a 1,000-yard season in 2021 and spans seven seasons across four NFL teams.
