Will A.J. Brown play for the Eagles against the Giants on Sunday? Eagles WR injury report

The Philadelphia Eagles will host the New York Giants on Sunday, looking to avenge a chastening 34-17 loss earlier this month.

The Eagles will be the favorites heading into the game but they will be without wide receiver A.J. Brown due to injury. Brown put up two touchdowns in last weekend’s victory over the Minnesota Vikings but he has not taken part in team practice this week due to a hamstring injury.

On Friday Brown’s status was updated to ‘Out’ for Sunday’s game against the Giants.

Speaking earlier in the week, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni had hinted that Brown may not recover in time to take part against the Giants. Asked about Brown’s fitness, Sirianni had said: “We always want the most time to be able to evaluate before we give [the media] any information.”

“Everybody has different scenarios with that,” Sirianni added. “I think a lot of our guys, just because of how locked in we are to the details, and our guys are locked into the details, the game-plan studying, the way they go about the walkthrough, the way they go about meetings, I definitely think he’s a guy that could [play].”

The Eagles currently sit top of the NFC East with a 5-2 record from their opening seven games. The Giants are bottom with a 2-5 record.
