Philadelphia Eagles Reward AJ Brown with Record-Setting Contract Extension
Eagles Receiver Inks Three-Year, $96 Million Deal
Eagles Lock Down Star Wideout
Philadelphia, PA - The Philadelphia Eagles have rewarded star wide receiver AJ Brown with a record-setting new contract extension, locking him in for the foreseeable future.
Just before the start of the 2024 NFL draft on Thursday, the Eagles and Brown agreed to a three-year contract extension that keeps him in Philadelphia through the 2027 season. According to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport, the deal is worth a whopping $96 million, making Brown the highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL on an annual basis.
Brown, who was acquired by the Eagles in a blockbuster trade with the Tennessee Titans last offseason, has quickly become a key part of the team's offense. In 2023, he set a single-season franchise record with 1,496 receiving yards, leading the Eagles to a Super Bowl berth. He also caught 11 touchdown passes, tied for the second-highest mark in team history.
The Eagles' decision to extend Brown's contract underscores the team's commitment to building a long-term winner. Brown is still just 26 years old and is entering the prime of his career. With him locked in, the Eagles are poised to be a contender in the NFC for years to come.
