Eagles GM responds to question about potential A.J. Brown trade

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman spoke to media members for the first time since the Eagles were defeated by the San Francisco 49ers in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs.

Given the events of the season, you knew there was going to be at least one question regarding star wide receiver A.J. Brown’s future with the franchise, and indeed there was.

When asked if the team would consider trading Brown over the offseason, Roseman provided an answer that made it sound like the team doesn’t want to trade the mercurial pass-catcher, without completely shutting down the possibility.

“We talked about this, I think at the trade deadline, last time I talked,” Roseman said. “It’s hard to find great players in the NFL and A.J.’s a great player. I think from my perspective that’s what we’re going out and looking for, when we go out in free agency and the Draft, is trying to find great players who love football and he’s that guy. So that would be my answer.”
