Brown did not take part in the Philadelphia Eagles' first training session of the week on Thursday. The wideout has an unspecified status for the first-round playoff game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

#Update: Brown has been ruled out of the NFC Showdown against the Buccaneers.

The Eagles will host two more practices before they face Tampa Bay. Last season's Super Bowl runners-up will be sweating on Brown's fitness, especially since the receiver is an integral part of their offense.

If Brown is unable to prove his fitness in the next two days, he could miss the trip to Tampa.

What happened to AJ Brown?

Brown injured his right knee during Philadelphia's Week 18 defeat to the New York Giants. He went down in the first quarter after getting tackled by Giants cornerback Nick McCloud.

The three-time Pro Bowler remained down for a while and was in some discomfort before limping off the field and heading into the locker room. The Eagles initially listed Brown as questionable to return, but later ruled him out in the third quarter.
