Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith

Monday, January 27, 9:50 AM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown delivered a massive bounce-back performance against the Washington Commanders, hauling in six receptions on eight targets for 96 yards and a touchdown. This marked Brown's best game since Week 15, showcasing his elite talent and reminding everyone of the dominant playmaker he is. Brown's ability to make plays was on full display, as he consistently found space and made critical catches. With the Eagles adopting a more balanced offensive attack in this game, Brown thrived and proved why he's one of the league's premier receivers. As the Eagles gear up for their Super Bowl matchup against the Buffalo Bills, Brown will be a key factor in their offensive game plan and poised for another standout performance.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was seen sitting on a heated bench during practice on Thursday and will be a DNP for the second straight day this week. Smith appears to have picked up a hamstring issue after the win over the division-rival Washington Commanders last Sunday in the NFC Championship game, but the Eagles are most likely just resting their No. 2 wideout with the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs not coming until Sunday, Feb. 9. It's possible that he doesn't get back onto the field until late next week, but nobody should be panicking that he won't be available for the big game next weekend. The 26-year-old hasn't scored in three playoff games but does have 12 receptions for 121 yards on his 12 targets in wins over the Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams and Commanders.
