Terrible news for AJ Brown fans! There was nothing Brown had not done to prevent this day. But alas, it is upon us. The Philadelphia Eagles have made it to the playoffs. And they will be facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday. However, they will be playing without their star wideout.

And with Brown out, who would replace him? Jalen Hurts is also nursing a finger injury. But he hasn’t been ruled out of the game yet. Will the Eagles succeed in going to the Divisional round without Brown?

AJ Brown to skip Monday game

The Wild Card round will feel different this time. Adam Schefter broke the bad news on Instagram. Indeed, AJ Brown will not be playing on Monday. It’s because of his sprained knee. However, there’s still a silver lining to all of this. He has made enough progress, so he can return for the Divisional round.

The 26-year-old had exited the game in the season finale. Why? It all happened during the New York Giants game. His right leg was stretched awkwardly behind him. The perpetrator was Giants CB Nick McCloud. In other news, he was the talk of the town again when he deactivated his X page. But it doesn’t stop there. He even cleared his Instagram profile of all Philly-references. Is he about to leave the team? It’s just speculation at this point.

“Definitely Not”: Nick Sirianni Shatters Opinions of Benching Jalen Hurts Amid Eagles’ QB’s Health Rumors

But the Eagles need to figure out what they would do without him.

What should the Eagles’ game plan be for Monday?

Brown bid adieu to the season, having recorded 106 passes for 1,456 yards. He even scored 7 touchdowns! He’s the Eagles leading receiver. And his absence is a severe blow to Nick Sirianni. But while he goes out, another player will return to the gridiron. Wideout DeVonta Smith. He had missed the season finale due to an ankle injury. However, he’s ready to go now.

Now that Brown is out of the picture, what does this mean for the Eagles? All the other WRs will get to see more action. Veteran Julio Jones has started to become more involved and will share the offensive burden on Monday. He had actually secured two TDs in Week 17. It’s all hands on deck for the Bucs game.

With a key wideout gone, will they try to bank on their running game now?
