Age-related production decline risk at age 29; the source notes Brown is 'heading into a part of the age tree where we could see some downturn heading into his age 29 season.' Historical comps include players who experienced career downturns (Alshon Jeffery, Brandin Cooks, Jakobi Meyers, Nate Washington, Kenny Britt), though some maintained production. Trade to New England Patriots adds uncertainty. However, the source states 'I do really like AJ Brown. I think that playing with Drake May will be a general positive for him compared to playing in the lower volume offense in Philadelphia,' suggesting the QB change could provide some offset to age concerns.
