Monday night’s Wild Card Round game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will go place without star wide receiver A.J. Brown.
Although the organization hasn’t ruled Brown out, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network is stating that his knee issue prevents him from playing.
Brown skipped practice on Thursday and Friday since he felt that Monday’s game would come too soon. According to Garafolo, he should be available if the Eagles make it to the Divisional Round.
#Eagles WR A.J. Brown will be ruled out against the #Buccaneers, sources say. He worked to try to get ready but won’t make it. Should Philly advance, he could be available for the Divisional Round.

In Brown’s absence, the Eagles will mostly use DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert as their receiving targets, but they will also have Olamide Zaccheaus, Julio Jones, and Quez Watkins available.
