Will A.J. Brown's departure be addition by subtraction? One voter said the pressure's on quarterback Jalen Hurts, whose relationship with Brown had grown cold and who will be playing in an overhauled offensive system under new coordinator Sean Mannion.

A.J. Brown traded away; strained Hurts relationship and role limitations drove departure.

Traded away from Eagles to Patriots; relationship with QB Jalen Hurts had grown cold. One exec questioned whether departure is addition by subtraction, while another noted the pressure now falls on Hurts in an overhauled offensive system under new coordinator Sean Mannion. Brown's departure stems partly from his desire to be the focal point of an offense; with Hurts as QB and Saquon Barkley in the backfield behind an elite offensive line, the Eagles are unlikely to throw 40 times per game, limiting any wideout's opportunity for dominance.
