A.J. Brown seemingly throws shade at Jalen Hurts over Eagles' offensive identity amid frustration on lack of targets

A.J. Brown seemingly threw shade at Jalen Hurts after the Philadelphia Eagles' disappointing 34-17 loss to the New York Giants. As per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, the wide receiver stated that they are still trying to find their offensive identity. This is because ex-OC Kellen Moore left for the Saints, and Kevin Patullo was named his replacement this season.

The three-time Pro Bowler was also questioned about the meeting that he had with quarterback Jalen Hurts and running back Saquon Barkley. However, A.J. Brown refused to speak on this matter.

"A.J. Brown asked about the meeting with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley this week repeatedly says he didn't recall any meeting. When told Hurts and Barkley confirmed it, he says you'd have to talk to them. As for the #Eagles' offense: 'We're still trying to find our identity.'" Garafolo tweeted.

Brown had another underwhelming performance on the field on Thursday against the Giants. He managed to record just 80 receiving yards and six catches, with no touchdowns to his name. The Eagles found themselves on the scoreboard thanks to Jake Elliott's field goal and Jalen Hurts' two total touchdowns.

So far this season, A.J. Brown has not been effective on the field as a part of Nick Sirianni's offense. Before Week 6, he recorded just 194 receiving yards with 19 catches in the past five games. He scored just one touchdown, which was during their 33-26 victory over the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3.

With this result, the Eagles have now put up a 4-2 season. However, there is an air of uncertainty about them competing for the Super Bowl this year.
