Report: Rams could revisit A.J. Brown trade after coming ‘really close’ to deal
The Rams and Eagles got “really close” to completing a trade involving A.J. Brown, and it’s possible talks could restart at some point.
After already making one blockbuster trade for Trent McDuffie this offseason, the Los Angeles Rams attempted to make another. They explored a deal for Philadelphia Eagles star A. J.
Brown , which likely would have involved Davante Adams, but the two sides never got a trade done. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network talked about just how close the Rams were to acquiring Brown during an appearance on the “Rich Eisen Show” Tuesday, and it sounds like they nearly got across the finish line. "That was really close," Garafolo said.
"It was closer than it got with the Patriots. That was really close. There was one point where overnight it sort of died.
It was like, 'Late one night, this could be going down by the next morning. You know what, there's too many moving parts here. '" Les Snead and Sean McVay have both admitted the Rams talked to the Eagles about a deal for Brown, but they decided against it and chose to keep Adams instead.
