4. A.J. Brown – Jalen Hurts (2022 – present)

In fourth, the current duo of Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown has the potential to be one of the most electric in Eagles history. They’re only seven games into the season, so they have plenty left to prove, though there are others on the list with short tenures.

As of now, A.J. Brown has 659 (6th in the NFL) receiving yards and 5 TDs. If projected across the rest of the season, that’s about 1,600 receiving yards and 12 TDs. These stats alone would propel this duo toward the top of this list. And if Hurts and Brown can replicate this success over multiple seasons, sprinkle in some playoff success, then it wouldn’t be long for them to take the top spot.

Both players are still young. A.J. Brown had injury concerns with the Tennessee Titans last season, and while Jalen Hurts is making a strong case for MVP this season, he’s still relatively new on the NFL scene. And there are 10 games left to play. This WR-QB combo has the potential to be one of the best the Eagles have ever assembled. We’ll just have to wait and see how high they climb.
