Last year, we did not see this version of Brown, especially as the 2025 season wore on. Over his last four games, Brown averaged 57.2 yards per game, culminating in a disastrous performance in the Birds' NFC Wild Card loss to the 49ers... he caught just three passes for 25 yards and had multiple drops and one screaming match with his head coach. Last season, Brown looked slower and less athletic.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Brown's late-2025 collapse (57.2 yards/game final four games) raised age concerns before joint-practice resurgence.

Brown's 2025 season performance, particularly the final stretch, was disappointing and concerning. Over his last four games, he averaged just 57.2 yards per game; in the NFC Wild Card loss to the 49ers, he caught only 3 passes for 25 yards with multiple drops and a screaming match with head coach Nick Sirianni. The source attributes this decline to Brown appearing slower, less athletic, worn out, tired, and uninterested as the season progressed, raising fair questions about whether age (at 29) was catching up to him. The source criticizes Brown for going through the motions in the playoff game, noting that the fire and motivation were absent and that he wanted out of Philadelphia.
