Fantasy Football Outlook: Will A.J. Brown Play Week 3?
A.J. Brown (hamstring) ruled out for Week 3
A.J. Brown has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Saints.
Fantasy Impact
Brown was expected to miss at least one more game. DeVonta Smith should continue to take on a bigger role among Eagles wide receivers.

A.J. Brown (hamstring) officially doesn’t practice Thursday
A.J. Brown (hamstring) officially did not practice for the Eagles on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
As expected, Brown was not able to practice for the Eagles at all on Thursday. He’s still dealing with a hamstring injury, and it looks like he still needs more time before he’s ready to take the field. He’s trending towards not playing in Week 3, which will lead to more work for Devonta Smith and Saquon Barkley in a matchup against the Saints.

A.J. Brown (hamstring) estimated as DNP Wednesday
Philadelphia Eagles WR A.J. Brown was estimated as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday as the team held a walkthrough.
Fantasy Impact
Brown, who did not play in Week 2’s Monday night loss to Atlanta, shared that he would likely face a multi-week absence as he recovers from the hamstring injury he suffered late last week. His absence from practice is not a surprise for this reason, and it should not be expected that he is available, though reports this week should be monitored in case he makes a return to a limited status before Week 3 kicks off.

What the Experts Are Saying
A.J. Brown didn’t practice on Wednesday. Currently, I think he sits this week, but it’s simple. If he is active this week, he’s in your fantasy lineups.
