AJ Brown will miss the Eagles' Week 3 game against the Saints.
The star wide receiver is nursing a hamstring injury that will sideline him for a second straight week after missing Monday's game against the Philadelphia Falcons.
After the match, Brown He told ESPN He said the injury is expected to sideline him for “a few weeks” but won't have any long-term impact.
He reportedly hurt his hamstring during practice last Friday.
“Obviously we're going to miss AJ. He's one of the best players in the NFL so we're going to miss him,” Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said earlier this week.
The Eagles, who are 1-1 going into Sunday's game, will face the Buccaneers in Week 4 before their bye week, which could allow Brown to miss just one game and give him two more weeks to recover.
The Mississippi native has emerged as one of the NFL's top pass-catchers since being traded from the Titans to the Eagles ahead of the 2022 season.
The 27-year-old Brown, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, has 199 receptions and 19 touchdowns in his first three seasons with Philadelphia.
Brown was outstanding in the Eagles' season-opening win over the Packers in Brazil, catching five catches for 119 yards and a touchdown.
DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson, who each caught seven passes in the Eagles' first two games, are expected to fill holes in Philadelphia's passing game in Brown's absence.
