## Resource

Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels is already raving about new WR A.J. Brown, comparing his physical, forceful style to legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski—despite the size difference. Brown, traded from the Eagles for future draft picks, is expected to see a huge target share in 2026, with McDaniels and QB Drake Maye poised to unleash his contested-catch prowess. Brown called his first day “close to heaven,” and fans are buzzing—whether they love or hate the Gronk comparison, the Patriots are clearly thrilled to have him.
