    A.J. Brown injury: The latest on star Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver

    The Philadelphia Eagles practice report included a major addition on Friday.

    No. 1 wide receiver A.J. Brown was listed as a limited participant by the team with a hamstring injury. It’s a new injury, as Brown was not listed with an injury in Thursday’s practice report .

    Brown is coming off a productive season debut, leading the Eagles with 10 targets in Week 1 and turning those into five catches for 119 yards and one explosive, 67-yard touchdown reception against the Green Bay Packers :

    With the Eagles playing on Monday night, they could just be erring on the side of caution with their top offensive weapon. If Brown is able to practice on Saturday, he should be on track to play his usual high-volume role against the Atlanta Falcons .

    If Brown’s status gets downgraded, DeVonta Smith would serve as quarterback Jalen Hurts’ top target with Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson sliding into more prominent roles. Dotson would love to give the fans something to cheer about after his quiet Eagles debut in Week 1.

    Reserve offensive lineman Fred Johnson was also a new addition to the injury report with a thumb injury. Starting defensive end Milton Williams has been limited throughout the week with a foot injury. Cornerback Isaiah Rodgers (hand) and linebacker Devin White (ankle) both look poised to make their season debuts Monday after both got in another full practice.
