Hollywood Brown is expected to share snaps with Makai Lemon in the WR3 role, along with Elijah Moore and/or Darius Cooper, and appears more prepared to contribute to winning in Week 1 than Lemon.PositiveRoleSep 9, 2026
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.'NegativeDepth ChartSep 8, 2026
Listed on the Eagles' Week 1 depth chart as a backup wide receiver; the source questions whether both Brown and Elijah Moore will be active or if one will be scratched, suggesting rotation at the receiver position alongside Darius Cooper.NegativeRoleSep 7, 2026
Hollywood Brown offers experienced depth in the Eagles' receiver room in 2026. DeVonta Smith has taken on a leadership role in the room and is helping everybody, including Hollywood Brown, who is an older veteran.NegativeValueSep 6, 2026
Veteran receiver at age 29 signed to the 53-man roster seeking a resurgence. Brown produced 587 yards on 49 catches last season, significantly outpacing slot receiver Dontayvion Wicks (332 yards). The source uses this production comparison to highlight Brown's relative strength as a depth option, though his age and the team's hopes for a 'fountain of youth' suggest uncertainty about his ceiling.PositiveRoleSep 2, 2026
Roseman expressed tremendous confidence in Brown as part of the Eagles' receiver core, noting the team believes in him alongside other receivers like Makai Lemon and Elijah Moore.NegativeRoleSep 2, 2026
Eagles WR candidate to replace AJ Brown; the source notes that Hollywood Brown was not retained by the Chiefs, implying limited upside. The source groups Brown with other inadequate replacement options (Wicks, UDFA), suggesting other NFC East teams would be criticized for considering such a player as a solution.NegativeRoleAug 30, 2026
Brown didn't have a great camp but did enough by the end to prevent the team from moving on; cutting him wasn't ideal from a financial perspective, so he was retained on the initial 53-man roster.NegativeProjectionAug 29, 2026
Brown didn't have a great summer and Hurts threw a number of interceptions when the ball went his way, though his guaranteed money signals the Eagles holding onto him unless he exits in a trade; the team does value his deep threat ability.NegativeRoleAug 28, 2026
Hollywood Brown, a 2019 first-rounder, joins the Eagles' receiver room as a journeyman option to add speed and depth to the wide receiver group alongside DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, and Makai Lemon.PositiveRoleAug 27, 2026
Had a couple good short completions from Jalen Hurts during 11-on-11 drills in final camp practice.NegativeProjectionAug 27, 2026
Brown is probably on the 53-man roster and may get more playing time if Lemon needs developing, but he hasn't popped like the speedster was expected to. He may need time to adjust to the new scheme, suggesting underperformance relative to expectations and scheme fit concerns.PositiveRoleAug 26, 2026
Brown caught a touchdown pass from Hurts on a late crosser during the public practice. Zack Baun credits the score more to scheme and design, noting that Brown got open after Andrew Mukuba moved up closer to the line of scrimmage and bumped into Woolen. Brown also made a connection with Tanner McKee along the right sideline.NegativeProjectionAug 24, 2026
Hurts hit Brown deep down the left sideline, though the play occurred with defensive linemen crashing down on the QB, raising questions about whether the pass would have been completed in a game scenario. Later, Hurts overthrew Brown deep for what should've been a touchdown; Brown was pretty open with Andrew Mukuba trailing. This was noted as the first practice of camp where Brown's vertical threat ability showed up.PositiveDepth ChartAug 24, 2026
Hollywood Brown being among the rested players in the preseason seems like a good sign for his roster chances, at least if he's not traded.NegativeUsageAug 20, 2026
Brown was targeted multiple times by Jalen Hurts in red zone situations. He caught a touchdown in the back of the end zone after Hurts rolled right, and later caught another touchdown when Hurts beat former Eagle Kindle Vildor in tight coverage. However, Brown also had one incompletion where he wasn't able to keep two feet in bounds in the end zone.PositiveRoleAug 19, 2026
Brown is having his best two-day stretch of training camp, proving to be a reliable target for Hurts with multiple short and medium completions during the joint practice.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.PositiveRoleAug 17, 2026
Wide receiver Hollywood Brown received a nice throw from Jalen Hurts when he sat down in a soft spot in the defense; the source noted this was the most positive play Brown has been involved in for some time.NegativeUsageAug 17, 2026
Hollywood Brown had one touch in limited playing time in the preseason game, indicating minimal involvement in the offense.NegativeProjectionAug 16, 2026
Brown had a chance to make a defender miss for a big gain but got tackled instead. The source notes he just hasn't had an impressive summer overall.NegativeRoleAug 14, 2026
Brown is part of the Eagles' new receiver corps but is a lower priority for preseason development reps compared to Darius Cooper, Dontayvion Wicks, and Elijah Moore; the source notes he receives 'to a lesser extent' consideration for preseason action with Hurts.PositiveRoleAug 14, 2026
Brown has had a poor training camp and has been the target on most of Jalen Hurts' interceptions this summer; he also had a bad drop while wide open on a bubble screen. Despite receiving $5 million fully guaranteed when signed, the money doesn't make it a no-brainer for the team to move on, but he has been outshined by other Eagles receivers. He received extra work with Hurts after practice to get on the same page.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.NegativeRoleAug 11, 2026
Brown dropped a ball with Quinyon Mitchell covering him during 1-on-1 drills. He was also involved in the play where Mitchell got injured after getting tangled up with Brown.NegativeUsageAug 10, 2026
Brown had a well-timed connection with Hurts along the left sideline during practice. However, she also was targeted on an interception thrown to Quinyon Mitchell (didn't look like a good throw or decision from Hurts), and Riq Woolen knifed in front of Brown on a curl route in 7-on-7 to knock down a Hurts pass.NegativeRoleAug 10, 2026
The source notes that Brown has been outshined by others in camp. However, the Eagles gave him $5 million guaranteed, which impacted their compensatory pick formula, making it not easy to see them cutting him. The source suggests maybe they can move off Hollywood in a trade.NegativeDepth ChartAug 9, 2026

Connected with Jalen Hurts on multiple crossing routes; one was slightly behind his target but still entirely catchable, and another was in the red zone for a catch-and-run touchdown with Saquon Barkley preventing Zack Baun from stopping the receiver short of the goal line.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.NegativeRoleAug 6, 2026
Brown has had some good moments as a short/medium target but hasn't stood out as a deep threat, which should be part of his appeal. He's also been out-shined by some of the Eagles' other receivers.NegativeProjectionAug 4, 2026
Brown had a rough practice. He wasn't expecting a pass from Hurts on one play and was initially jogging before looking up and sprinting once he saw the ball in the air, resulting in an interception to Michael Carter II. On another deep attempt, the ball was placed on his hands but he failed to make the catch with Cooper DeJean in tight coverage. Hurts targeted him downfield again but the pass was incomplete.NegativeDepth ChartAug 4, 2026
Hollywood Brown is a notch below the three locks (Smith, Lemon, Wicks) in the Eagles wide receiver group; he is likely to make the roster but has to earn it.PositiveRoleAug 3, 2026
Brown benefited from a pass deflected at the line by Jalen Carter that landed in his hands for a short gain. He also caught a successful two-point conversion from Andy Dalton on an out route during the backup quarterback battle.PositiveRoleAug 3, 2026
Hollywood Brown, signed in free agency, is displaying elite explosiveness and burst at receiver in the Eagles' 2026 training camp. Brown reports being faster than ever after recovering from a Lis Franc injury suffered in his rookie year—an injury typically considered a career-ender. He is playing more freely and having fun, moving around at receiver in the Eagles' offense during the discovery period of camp.NegativeUsageJul 30, 2026
Had a pass intended for him over the middle that went through cornerback Riq Woolen's hands after Woolen undercut the route to be in position for a pick that ultimately wasn't made. Also drew a defensive pass interference penalty deep down the field (flag was either on Ambry Thomas or Andre' Sam).NegativeRoleJul 30, 2026

Brown caught a quick slant in stride from Andy Dalton during the backup quarterback reps, demonstrating continued offensive involvement.PositiveValueJul 29, 2026
Brown is probably being slept on and it's possible he could be WR3, though the source currently projects him as WR4; the source suggests he may be undervalued.NegativeRoleJul 29, 2026
Brown's career history shows he is capable of handling heavy usage, having had triple-digit targets in four consecutive seasons between 2020–2023, but his numbers have been trending down in recent years. The source projects he would be better suited as a horizontal/vertical stretch role player for the Eagles' receiving corps rather than a true mainstay at the top of the depth chart.PositiveRoleJul 28, 2026
Hollywood Brown was signed as a free agent by the Eagles in the offseason and is part of the upgraded receiver depth alongside first-round pick Makai Lemon and trade acquisition Dontayvion Wicks, providing Jalen Hurts with new weapons to replace A.J. Brown.PositiveRoleJul 23, 2026
Former first-round pick who has become the forgotten receiver in the Eagles room after the team drafted Makai Lemon and traded for Dontayvion Wicks; had 587 receiving yards with the Chiefs last year and still has blazing speed in Year 8, providing real depth at the position.NegativeRoleJul 22, 2026
Hollywood Brown is mentioned as a potential third receiver option for the Eagles in 2026, competing with Dontayvion Wicks and Elijah Moore for playing time.
