Key takeaways from Eagles adding Marquise' Hollywood' Brown

· Yahoo Sports

The Eagles added Marquise "Hollywood" Brown on a one-year deal, but the move won't impact the looming A.J. Brown decision in June. Jordan Schultz reported the move as Brown heads to Philadelphia on a one-year deal worth up to $6.5 million. A former Ravens first-round pick, Brown caught 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns last season and still separates from coverage.

Here's an instant analysis and key takeaways from the signing.

Brown has never played with Jalen Hurts

. Brown declared for the NFL draft after the 2018 season, while after leading Alabama to a come-from-behind victory over Georgia in the SEC championship game in relief of an injured Tagovailoa, Hurts declared that his "story wasn't finished yet." In transferring to Oklahoma, he missed Brown by a few months, but did play with CeeDee Lamb on the way to being a Heisman Finalist.

Brown has traveled

The Eagles will be Brown's third team in four seasons, having spent the last two seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs after achieving his only 1,000-yard receiving season with the Baltimore Ravens in 2021.

Brown has produced

In seven NFL seasons since departing Oklahoma, Brown has 371 receptions for 4,322 yards and 33 touchdowns.

How it impacts A.J. Brown

Brown was signed to be a third wide receiver, and while he's insurance for a potential A.J. Brown trade, Philadelphia would still need to make a move if they trade the All-Pro pass catcher.

Brown offers explosive plays despite minimal production

In his two seasons with Arizona after the blockbuster trade from Baltimore, Brown played in just 28 games due to injuries and posted 67 receptions for 704 yards in 2022 and 51 receptions for 574 yards in 2023.
