Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Jaylen Waddle

Friday, January 16, 9:20 PM

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said "nothing is impossible" regarding wide receiver A.J. Brown's future with the Philadelphia Eagles. Rapoport adds that if the Eagles want to trade Brown this offseason, they can certainly do so, although they'd be taking a salary cap hit. "It's hard to find great players in the NFL, and A.J.'s a great player," general manager Howie Roseman said when asked if he'd be open to trading Brown. The 28-year-old pass-catcher had seven touchdown receptions during the regular season for the third straight year with the Eagles, and he also reached the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth straight season and sixth time in seven NFL seasons. However, he didn't exactly see eye to eye with either quarterback Jalen Hurts or head coach Nick Sirriani, and the Eagles might prefer a divorce as they look to turn around their struggling offense in 2026. Depending on who the team's next offensive coordinator is, Brown's fantasy prospects next year might look better if he's not in Philly.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ribs) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the New England Patriots. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. This Quinn Ewers-led offense finds itself incredibly short-handed with Waddle, De'Von Achane (shoulder), Darren Waller (groin, IR), and Tyreek Hill (knee, IR) all sidelined. Malik Washington, Cedrick Wilson, and late-season breakout Theo Wease Jr. should step up as Ewers' top targets in the passing game on Sunday. Those receivers will look to outduel a Patriots defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025.
