Devonta Smith, A.J. Brown on Eagles’ new OC Kellen Moore: ‘Just let us do what we do’

The Eagles are undergoing a retool on both sides of the football after Nick Sirianni replaced both coordinators and 20+ starters and contributors are headed for free agency.

Philadelphia collapsed, losing six of their final seven games played, before bowing out of the wild card round with a 32-9 loss to the Buccaneers in Tampa.

With the offseason underway, All-Pro wide receiver A.J. Brown and star wide receiver DeVonta Smith sat down Kay Adams of the ‘Up & Adams Show’ for an insightful and informative interview.

Brown addressed trade rumors, Smith addressed Kellen Moore, and the two discussed what’s to come in 2024.
