"I guess Saquon [Barkley] ain't the same player either, then," Brown said at his locker Thursday."
"Brown was asked if he pays attention to what other receivers around the league like CeeDee Lamb are doing, and he smiled and said no because "it gets me upset.""
""There's a time and place for it but right now, I'm just trying to stay focused," he said."
A.J. Brown pushed back on speculation about his performance with a comparison to Saquon Barkley and said he avoids monitoring other receivers because it upsets him. The Eagles offense has slowed, ranking 25th in total yards (300.1), 28th in passing (184.9) and 29th in third-down conversion rate (33.87%), with rushing down to 115 yards per game from 179 in 2024. Philadelphia compensates with a 75% red-zone conversion rate, a league-low four giveaways and a defense playing exceptionally well, leaving the team 8-2. Brown has 38 catches for 457 yards and three touchdowns in nine games and is on pace for a career-low 812 yards. Frustration from Brown has appeared on social media and in interviews, and reports indicate mounting frustration from coaches and players toward the quarterback.
