"We'll explore anything that we think can help the team. I think the only real deadlines you have are, sort of maybe salary cap related. If, for instance - did we spend money in free agency that would take us out of something else? But, I wouldn't say that there's a deadline on trying to improve the team."
"The Eagles will not trade A.J. Brown at this time. However, trade discussions could resume once salary cap relief on June 1 approaches. In Brown's situation, if he gets dealt after June 1, his dead cap hit for the Eagles would fall to $16.4 million from a pre-June 1 trade of $43 million."
The New England Patriots made strong efforts to acquire star wide receiver A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles before the NFL's legal tampering period began, but the Eagles declined to trade him at this time. Brown's relationship with Philadelphia has deteriorated, making him a potential trade target. The Patriots subsequently signed Romeo Doubs to a four-year, $80 million contract, seemingly ending immediate pursuit of Brown. However, Patriots executive vice president Eliot Wolf indicated the team remains open to exploring trades that improve the roster. Trade discussions could resume closer to June 1, when the Eagles would receive significant salary cap relief, reducing Brown's dead cap hit from $43 million to $16.4 million in a post-June 1 trade.
