The Eagles are moving on from another veteran during their bye week.

Philadelphia is waiving wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, according to Jordan Schultz, who reported that both sides agreed a separation would be beneficial. Schultz added that Brown is expected to land with a playoff contender, although no destination has been reported.

The move ends Brown's brief stay, as he joined the Eagles on a one-year contract in March after catching 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns with Kansas City last season.

Philadelphia signed him to provide speed and experience in its receiving corps. Instead, the Eagles have struggled to establish a consistent passing attack while cycling through quarterbacks and dealing with receiver injuries.

Hollywood Brown departs after limited production against Giants

Brown caught one pass for 16 yards on his only target during Sunday’s 19-11 loss to the Giants. He played 35 offensive snaps, accounting for half of Philadelphia’s offensive workload.

The defeat dropped the Eagles to 2-7 and extended their losing streak to seven games. Brown’s reported departure follows the trade sending defensive tackle Jordan Davis to Jacksonville and the team’s decision to waive running back Jaydon Blue.

Brown had surfaced in trade speculation before Tuesday’s deadline, but Philadelphia did not complete a deal involving the veteran receiver. The Eagles are now moving toward a roster separation without a reported trade return.

His experience and previous production could appeal to teams seeking receiving help for the stretch run. Baltimore selected Brown in the first round in 2019, and he later played for Arizona before joining Kansas City. His best receiving season came with the Ravens in 2021, when he recorded 91 catches for 1,008 yards. philadelphiaeagles.com

Eagles continue evaluating their receiving options

The departure would remove another experienced option as Philadelphia works to improve its offense around Joe Milton.

Rookie Makai Lemon led the Eagles with six catches for 61 yards against New York, while Darius Cooper added two receptions for 25 yards. Their continued development remains important as Philadelphia evaluates its personnel over the final eight games.

The Eagles return from their bye to host Pittsburgh in Week 11. Brown, meanwhile, is positioned to seek another opportunity after a Philadelphia stint that did not produce the anticipated impact.
