Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown made history on Sunday against the Washington Commanders by becoming the first NFL player to post 125-plus receiving yards in six straight games.

Brown entered the record books with a catch in the fourth quarter of Philadelphia's 38-31 victory in Week 8. It was the eighth catch versus Washington for the two-time Pro Bowler, who finished the day with 130 yards and two touchdown catches, including a spectacular one-handed TD.

Brown entered the Commanders game tied with Calvin Johnson and Pat Studstill as the only players in NFL history to have at least 125 receiving yards in five straight appearances.

Brown, whom Philadelphia acquired via trade from the Tennessee Titans during the 2022 offseason, racked up 108 yards combined in this season's first two games before kicking off his record-setting streak:

Week Opp Rec Yds TD
1 NE 7 79 0
2 MIN 4 29 0
3 TB 9 131 0
4 WAS 9 175 2
5 LAR 6 127 0
6 NYJ 7 131 0
7 MIA 10 137 1
8 WAS 8 130 2

Sunday's 125-yard performance was the 16th of Brown's career, which ties Odell Beckham Jr. for the fifth-most in the first five seasons of a player's career in NFL history.
