A.J. Brown 2025 Fantasy Preview
| A.J. Brown | WR - Philadelphia Eagles | Bye:9 |
| Age: 28 | HT: 6-1 | WT: 226 |
2024: Brown missed three games with a hamstring issue early in the season and got Week 18 off as the Eagles prepared for the playoffs, limiting him to 13 appearances in his third season in Philly. Despite being a mainstay of the injury report, his per-game and per-rotue numbers were as stellar as ever. He had a 17-game pace of over 1,400 yards and ranked second in the league in yards per route run during the regular season at 2.99. Passing volume and injuries prevented Brown from posting elite fantasy numbers, but he was still the superstar fantasy managers have come to know and love.
What’s changed: The Eagles lost offensive coordinator Kellen Moore in the offseason, but he was largely running his version of the Philadelphia offense mandated by the presence of Jalen Hurts and a history-chasing Saquon Barkley. Their biggest change for 2025 could be an uptick in passing volume. Defensive performances aren’t nearly as stable year to year and Philly gave up the second-fewest points in the league in 2024. The defense should remain among the best in the league, but sustaining their 2024 level of dominance is almost impossible.
2025 Outlook: The Eagles got top-five performances by EPA per play from both their defense and their ground game in 2024. In turn, they threw 25.7 pass attempts per game, the lowest mark in the league. They aren’t going to be a pass-first team in 2025, but any regression on defense or in the run game will create more volume for Brown. As a hyper-talented wideout still on the right side of 30 years old, that’s a profile worth betting on.
