Hollywood Brown is available for trade and expected to be shopped by the Eagles in the coming weeks, per NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Brown has struggled to earn playing time in Philadelphia: he was active but played zero snaps in Week 1, managed only 17 snaps in Week 2, missed three games with an ankle injury, and was kept inactive as a healthy scratch in Week 6 behind six active receivers (DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Elijah Moore, and Britain Covey). The source notes Brown has no clear role in the Eagles' offense and would welcome a new NFL home, though the Eagles are unlikely to receive significant trade compensation for the one-year, $5 million contract signed earlier in the year.

Marquise Brown ran vertical clear-out routes with real intent, forcing deep coverage to honor his speed, while creating space for intermediate routes underneath. He did not play in Week 1 but ran these clear-out routes hard and looked very fast. Brown also carried the ball twice for 12 yards. Jalen Hurts notes that speed changes the defense even when the ball doesn't come his way and would like to see more of him, suggesting increased usage potential despite limited Week 2 snaps.

Eagles wide receiver Hollywood Brown was surprised by his lack of playing time in Week 1. Coach Nick Sirianni acknowledged on Monday that Brown's snap count will change moving forward, noting the 29-year-old can create space with his speed and playmaking skills. Sirianni stated: 'Hollywood could obviously help us... we obviously want to get him into the football game because his speed is real.' Brown responded he's ready for next week despite the disappointment.

Brown is part of the Eagles' receiving corps expected to help fill the void left by the departure of a key receiver. In Sean Mannion's play-action-heavy scheme, Brown, along with Dontayvion Wicks, Elijah Moore, and Makai Lemon, are positioned to support the offense's success. The source states, 'if Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, Elijah Moore and Makai Lemon can help make up for the loss of good ol' What's His Name in New England... there's nothing that can hold this offense back.'
NegativeValueAug 19, 2026
Brown has been out-played by both Darius Cooper and Elijah Moore during camp despite receiving $5 million in guaranteed money. The source notes 'Moore and Cooper have both out-played Brown by a wide margin, but the Eagles gave Brown $5 million in guaranteed money where Moore and Cooper are on minimum-wage deals with no guarantees.' The Eagles may keep Brown due to his guaranteed money and past production (1,000-yard season, couple 700-yard seasons, 587 yards and five TDs with the Chiefs last year), but his camp performance has been underwhelming relative to the competition.
PositiveProjectionAug 13, 2026
The veteran receiver has been the target on most of Hurts' interceptions in training camp this summer and had a bad drop while wide open on a bubble screen. Brown received $5 million fully guaranteed when the Eagles signed him, so the money doesn't make it a no-brainer for the team to move on from the veteran receiver. But he just hasn't had a great camp and he's been outshined by other Eagles receivers. Brown got some extra work in with Hurts after practice to presumably help getting on the same page.
NegativeDepth ChartAug 8, 2026
Brown received $5 million guaranteed from the Eagles and canceled out a comp pick, but the source has at least four receivers ahead of him on camp performance so far: DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, Darius Cooper, and Elijah Moore. The source might also add Johnny Wilson, and notes that Makai Lemon will obviously be on the roster. The source's opinion remains (mostly) unchanged that Brown will be on the team, but there should be pressure for him to pick up his game given the depth of receivers performing better in camp.
