The Philadelphia Eagles released wide receiver Hollywood Brown on Friday after he requested his departure. Brown, 29, had played sparingly since signing a one-year, $5 million deal this offseason, recording just five catches for 63 yards in four games. The Eagles are comfortable moving on with DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks returning from injuries and younger receivers emerging.
