The Philadelphia Eagles Have Traded for a Wide Receiver
Published:
Oh my God what does it mean for A.J. Brown!?
Schefty says the 5th rounder is the one they got from the Falcons recently.
Wicks is 6’1″, 205 pounds, a 24 year old going into his fourth season. He caught 30 of his 46 targets last season for 332 yards and two touchdowns, though he only played 14 games and missed the end of the season with concussion symptoms. He’s crested 500 yards previously, and while he’s flashed here and there, maybe the Birds can unlock his full potential.
Wicks joins Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore as three receivers the Birds have added this offseason.
This trade has resulted in the A.J. Brown market shifting to the New England Patriots. Maybe we’ll get a resolution on this soon and can move on with our lives:
