A.J. Brown is preparing to speak publicly about his blockbuster move from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots. Brown recently sat down with NBC Sports host Maria Taylor and NBA Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony for an appearance on Anthony’s “7 PM in Brooklyn” podcast. While no release date has been announced, Taylor indicated the interview is coming soon.
The appearance will likely mark Brown’s most extensive public comments since the trade that sent the All-Pro wide receiver from Philadelphia to New England in exchange for draft compensation that included a first-round pick.
The timing makes the interview one of the most anticipated conversations of the NFL offseason.

Brown’s departure from Philadelphia ended a four-year run that ranks among the most productive stretches by a wide receiver in franchise history. Acquired from the Tennessee Titans during the 2022 NFL Draft, Brown quickly became one of quarterback Jalen Hurts’ favorite targets and helped transform the Eagles into one of the NFL’s premier contenders.
During his tenure in Philadelphia, Brown totaled 339 receptions, 5,034 receiving yards, and 32 touchdowns while earning multiple Pro Bowl selections and All-Pro honors. He also helped the Eagles reach two Super Bowls and establish themselves as one of the league’s elite teams.
The trade to New England reunited Brown with Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, who coached him during his early years with the Titans. It also fulfilled what many view as a childhood dream for Brown, who has frequently spoken about growing up as a Patriots fan and admiring Tom Brady. Given the circumstances surrounding the trade, Brown’s relationship with Philadelphia, his excitement about joining the Patriots, and his expectations for the future are likely to be topics of discussion.
For Eagles fans, Patriots fans, and NFL observers alike, the interview should provide the first detailed look into Brown’s perspective on one of the league’s most shocking offseason moves.
Now the only question is: when will the episode drop?
