Brown, who has been dealing with a knee injury since the team’s Week 9 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars and has been practicing very little in recent weeks.

PHILADELPHIA - The Eagles began on-field preparation for Sunday’s Divisional Round matchup with the Los Angeles Rams without star receiver A.J. Brown, who was not present at the portion of the practice open to reporters.

Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown ignited a public kerfuffle Sunday when he was spotted reading a book — "Inner Excellence: Train Your Mind for Extraordinary Performance and the Best Possible Life," by Jim Murphy — to inspire himself during the team’s wild-card victory over the Green Bay Packers.

But every head coach has different expectations of their players, particularly on what they should be doing on the sidelines. Yet, don’t expect Eagles coach Nick Sirianni to stop Brown from reading that book. In fact, he’s known about it for a long time now.
