A.J. Brown Scores Lone Eagles Touchdown In Week 17
2 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught 4-of-9 targets, gained 97 yards, and scored a touchdown during the team's 20-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The offense had a tough time getting on to the field during the first half, but the 25-year-old salvaged his fantasy performance with a late third-quarter 78-yard touchdown catch and run. Teammate DeVonta Smith has out-targeted Brown the past two weeks with backup Gardner Minshew under center, but it has not hindered his fantasy production much. Starting quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) has a chance to return next week against the New York Giants after he resumed throwing in practice this past week. Regardless of who is under center, the fourth-year receiver will be considered a back-end WR1 for those playing their title games in Week 18.
