Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver AJ Brown appears to have avoided ‘serious’ injury from Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Brown sparked concerns of being out of the Eagles’ lineup after he suffered the injury in the second quarter of the game.
Now, he is only considered ‘day-to-day’ and expected to be fine long term, per ESPN and NFL Network.
Brown is the Eagles top wide receiver and is viewed as one of the elite wideouts in the entire NFL.
The Eagles could still be with Brown when they face NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys, on Sunday.

The Eagles entered the season with high expectations after retaining the core of a squad that started last regular season 10-1 before a momentous collapse.
Philadelphia is a half game behind the Washington Commanders for first place in its division.
Brown is an integral member of the Eagles’ offense, counter-balancing new addition Saquon Barkley, whose post-Giants tenure has reminded the NFL how good he is.
Brown is second on the Eagles with 444 receiving yards, only 29 behind DeVonta Smith for the team lead.
The Eagles begin maybe their most crucial stretch of the season on Sunday with the game at Dallas.
After that comes challenges against the Commanders, Rams and Ravens in what will likely be a trio of games that will guide the rest of the Eagles’ season.
