The offseason for the Philadelphia Eagles has been dominated by headlines surrounding receiver A.J. Brown.
With reports and rumors swirling around that Brown could be on the trade block, many think his time in Philadelphia is over, especially after last season's antics.
But as we know, the NFL is a never-say-never business, and for all of the trade talk, there is a very real possibility that Brown remains with the franchise in 2026.
Except his head coach, Nick Sirianni, isn't ruling out Brown being on another team next season.
"Will A.J. be here next season? I think we're still in a spot, like, I can't guarantee how anything is going to play out into next season. I'm thinking I'm going to be the coach next season, but you can't guarantee anything past tomorrow," Sirianni said via ESPN.

What will happen with Brown?
Personally, I think it will all be determined by what the Eagles can get in return by floating Brown out as a trade candidate.
If they can get something good in return, like a first-round pick, then maybe the franchise might move on, but if there isn't that much interest, or the packages coming to them aren't enticing enough, A.J. could remain with the franchise.
It doesn't seem like Brown will be an Eagle in 2026, and that's just a purely speculative thought; we will know more in the coming weeks.
But Sirianni not guaranteeing Brown will be on the roster is noteworthy.
