Eagles Quarterback Says Relationship With Receiver Remains Strong

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts said his relationship with wide receiver A.J. Brown remains "really good" despite ongoing trade speculation surrounding the receiver. Hurts addressed the topic during media availability after an organized team activity session.

He noted the pair's shared history and past on-field success while acknowledging the persistent trade discussion. "We're really good," Hurts said of Brown. "I saw how beautiful the pictures came out at his wedding. Reports indicate the teams involved are waiting until after June 1 to complete any potential deal because of salary-cap considerations.

The Eagles have already added depth at the position. They drafted Makai Lemon, acquired Dontayvion Wicks in a trade with the Green Bay Packers, and signed Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore to one-year contracts.

Hurts and Brown first connected during Brown's recruiting visit to Alabama, and Hurts is the godfather to Brown's daughter. Brown has previously expressed frustration with the team's passing offense, including comments directed at Hurts regarding target distribution.
