While he will miss Monday's game against the Atlanta Falcons due to a hamstring injury suffered in practice on Friday, the Philadelphia Eagles expect A.J. Brown to be back on the field soon.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported ahead of Monday Night Football that the Eagles "maybe could have pushed him to play tonight," but decided it wasn't worth it. Instead, they'll look for Brown to return for Week 3 on Sunday.

"They did not place him on IR, so that tells you that they expect this to be a short-term absence," Garafolo said.
