Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said he 'can't guarantee' wide receiver A.J. Brown will play for Philadelphia next season.
Brown has topped 1,000 yards in all four of his seasons with the team but is the subject of trade speculation this offseason after repeatedly expressing his frustration with the offense in 2025.
Despite the frayed relationship, Sirianni said there is mutual interest in the three-time Pro Bowl selection continuing his career with Philadelphia.
'My expectation is he wants to be here. And obviously you want good players like that in your building,' Sirianni said during a session with local media, per ESPN.
'As (general manager) Howie (Roseman) said, it's hard to get good players in this league. A.J.'s a great player and A.J. is a good teammate and A.J. is a good person. Does he want to be here? Yes. Do I want him to be here? Yes.'
When pressed about whether the 28-year-old Brown would be in an Eagles uniform in 2026, Sirianni provided a cautious answer.
'Will A.J. be here next season? I think we're still in a spot, like, I can't guarantee how anything is going to play out into next season,' Sirianni said. 'I'm thinking I'm going to be the coach next season but you can't guarantee anything past tomorrow.'
During a Super Bowl week appearance on Micah Parsons' podcast, Brown called Philadelphia 'home' and said he felt 'fortunate' to be part of the team.
Brown has 339 catches for 5,034 yards and 32 touchdowns in 62 games in four seasons with the Eagles, winning a Super Bowl in the 2024 season and NFC East titles in 2022, 2024 and 2025.
Brown signed a three-year, $96 million extension ($84 million guaranteed) in April 2024. He carries a $23.4 million cap hit for the 2026 season.
