Brown (head) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Brown suffered a blow to the head on the game's opening play, ultimately being evaluated for a concussion. It's unclear if he did in fact suffer a concussion, but his day has come to an end regardless. Brown's impact is primarily on special teams, so his absence won't cause any major issues for Philadelphia's defense.

Done for rest of Sunday
Brown (head) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Brown suffered a blow to the head on the game's opening play, ultimately being evaluated for a concussion. It's unclear if he did in fact suffer a concussion, but his day has come to an end regardless. Brown's impact is primarily on special teams, so his absence won't cause any major issues for Philadelphia's defense.
Exits game versus Steelers
Brown exited Sunday's game versus the Steelers and is being evaluated for a concussion. Brown is now questionable to return after leaving the game early in the first quarter. If he ends up being unable to return, Tristin McCollum should see an uptick in playing time.
Good to go Week 15
Brown (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's battle against Pittsburgh. Brown didn't play this past Sunday against Carolina, but he appears set to return against the Steelers. The second-year safety began this week as a DNP, but he progressed to a limited practice Thursday before participating in full Friday. Brown has played primarily on special teams this season while logging just 26 defensive snaps over seven games.
Ruled out for Week 14
Brown (knee) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports. Brown was unable to practice all week due to a knee injury, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Steelers on Sunday, Dec. 15. Brown has mostly played on special teams this season, but with Reed Blankenship (concussion) also ruled out for Sunday's game, Tristin McCollum is in line to start at free safety alongside strong safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
Activated off PUP list
The Eagles activated Brown (knee) from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports. Brown opened the season on the reserve/PUP list while recovering from offseason surgery to repair an ACL injury in late January. His 21-day practice window opened Oct. 7, and after practicing as a full participant in all three sessions this week, he's set to make his regular-season debut Sunday against the Giants. Brown played in 14 regular-season games last year and finished with 45 tackles (32 solo), three pass breakups, one forced fumble and a pick-six.
Full participant in practice
Brown (knee) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's injury report. Brown underwent surgery in January to repair a torn ACL, which caused him to start the 2024 regular season on injured reserve. The 2023 third-round pick appears to have benefited from the Eagles' Week 5 bye, as he was able to return to practice Wednesday without any limitations. Barring any setbacks, Brown should make his regular-season debut against Cleveland on Sunday.
Practice window opens
Brown (knee) was designated to return from the Eagles' reserve/PUP list Monday. Brown had missed the first five weeks of Philadelphia's 2024 campaign after tearing his ACL in the Eagles' Week 18 loss to the Giants in 2023, but it now appears he's nearing a return to the field. The Eagles will have 21 days to activate Brown to their active roster before he reverts back to the team's reserve/PUP list. When Brown is fully past his knee issue, he's expected serve as Philadelphia's No. 2 free safety behind Reed Blankenship (illness).
Opening season on PUP list
Brown (knee) will open the regular season on the reserve/PUP list, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Brown is still recovering from offseason surgery to repair an ACL injury and he'll now be forced to miss at least four games to open the season. The safety will be first eligible to return Week 5 versus the Browns on Oct. 13.
Will begin camp on PUP list
Brown (knee) be placed on the PUP list at the start of training camp, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports. This move isn't surprising, as Brown underwent surgery on his ACL in late January. It's not yet clear if the second-year safety will be ready for the start of the regular season, but he can be activated off the PUP list at any time in the preseason, at which point he'd be eligible to practice and participate in exhibition contests.
