News

  • Surprise scratch

    Brown (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Brown has faded from relevance in the Jacksonville offense, recording one or fewer targets in three straight games. However, in a surprising move, Brown is now the odd man out with Brian Thomas active for the first time since Week 9. Austin Trammell will serve as the Jaguars' fifth wide receiver.

  • Blanked in Arizona

    Brown wasn't targeted during Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old played just four offensive snaps and didn't receive a target for the first time this season. Even with Brian Thomas (ankle) missing the past three contests, Brown has fallen out of favor in Jacksonville's receiving corps following the acquisition of Jakobi Meyers ahead of the trade deadline.

  • Non-factor against Chargers

    Brown failed to secure his only target in Sunday's 35-6 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Brown played just 27 percent of the Jaguars' offensive snaps Sunday, his lowest snap share of the season. The 26-year-old wideout was targeted just once and held without a catch for the second straight week. Brown failed to take a step forward over the past two games despite both Brian Thomas (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee) sidelined in those contests. The veteran should remain off the fantasy radar as the Jaguars head into a Week 12 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • No catches in loss

    Brown failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 36-29 loss to the Texans.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old suffered a concussion in Week 9 against the Raiders but was able to clear the concussion protocol without missing a game. Even with Brian Thomas (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee) sidelined Sunday, Brown played just 21 offensive snaps and was held without a catch for the first time in eight contests this year.

  • Cleared to return for Week 10

    Brown (concussion) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Brown has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and will be available for the Jaguars, who will be playing without Brian Thomas (ankle). Thomas' absence could open up more opportunities for Brown and Parker Washington, especially if trade acquisition Jakobi Meyers isn't quite up to speed yet.

  • Full participant Thursday

    Brown (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Thursday's full participation comes on the heels of Brown's limited session Wednesday. His progress is encouraging, but Brown still has to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, which includes an evaluation by an independent neurologist, in order to suit up Sunday against the Texans. Wide receiver Brian Thomas (ankle) didn't practice Thursday, so there could be more opportunities available for Brown on Sunday if Brown plays and Thomas doesn't.

  • Limited in practice

    Brown (concussion) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    Analysis: Brown suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of Sunday's win over the Raiders, exiting shortly before Brian Thomas (ankle) suffered an injury of his own. The Jaguars then traded for Jakobi Meyers on Tuesday and got Tim Patrick (groin) back to full practice participation Wednesday, adding to the long list of potential starters at WR for Sunday's game against Houston. Much will depend on the health of Thomas and Brown.

  • Ruled out prior to overtime

    Brown (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Raiders, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: Brown has been ruled out to begin overtime, while Brian Thomas (ankle) is questionable to return. Prior to exiting, Brown caught three of seven targets for 25 yards and rushed once for four yards. The Jaguars placed wide receiver Travis Hunter (knee) on injured reserve prior to the game, leaving Parker Washington as their top healthy option at the position.

  • Good to go in Week 9

    Brown (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Las Vegas.

    Analysis: Brown opened Week 9 prep as limited due to a shoulder issue Wednesday, but full practices Thursday and Friday have cleared him to suit up Sunday, when he'll be without Travis Hunter for the first of at least four contests after the rookie first-round pick was placed on injured reserve following Thursday's non-contact knee injury.

  • On track to play Week 9

    Brown (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: A lingering shoulder injury limited Brown's practice snaps Wednesday, but his ability to log a full session Thursday puts him on track to play against the Raiders on Sunday, barring a setback. He has served in a rotational role at wide receiver this season but could see an uptick in snaps if either Brian Thomas (shoulder) or Travis Hunter (knee) are unable to play Week 9. Brown has 16 catches (on 27 targets) for 194 yards and one touchdown across six regular-season games.

  • Opens week with limited practice

    Brown (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Brown has been working through a shoulder issue since sustaining the injury in Week 3 against the Texans. He'll continue to have his practice reps monitored to avoid aggravating the injury, and he'll likely be cleared to play against the Raiders on Sunday unless he suffers a setback. The 2021 third-rounder logged six catches (on 13 targets) for 78 yards and one carry for seven yards across his last three games.

  • Two catches in blowout loss

    Brown caught two of four targets for 50 yards during Sunday's 35-7 loss to the Rams in London.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old secured the longest reception of the game with a 39-yard catch with 8:10 remaining in the third quarter, but he appeared to land hard on his right leg in the process. Per Gerry Smits of The Florida Times-Union, Brown was helped off the field and headed to the blue medical tent on the Jacksonville sideline, and after missing the team's ensuing possession, the wideout returned to action with less than a minute left in the third quarter. The brief absence may have been a factor in…read more

  • Cleared after limited practices

    Brown (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Rams.

    Analysis: Brown was limited in all three of Jacksonville's practices this week but will suit up Sunday morning in London. His performance has dropped off significantly after a strong start, perhaps due to lingering injuries. Brown has just 35 receiving yards across his last three appearances dating back to Week 3.

  • Limited in practice again

    Brown (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Brown has now logged back-to-back limited practices in preparation for Week 7 action, meaning he may need to handle full reps during Friday's session in order to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Rams in London. He logged a trio of limited practices Week 6 before being cleared to suit up versus Seattle.

  • Limited in practice

    Brown (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    Analysis: It's presumably the same shoulder injury that Brown played through in Jacksonville's past two games (after missing Week 4). He has just 18 receiving yards on nine targets since returning to the lineup, perhaps leaving the door open for Parker Washington to get more snaps alongside Brian Thomas and Travis Hunter.

  • Does little with five targets

    Brown caught two of five targets for 13 yards and carried once for seven yards during Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old tied for third on the team in targets but finished below 20 receiving yards for his third consecutive contest. Brown totaled eight receptions for 109 yards and a touchdown in the first two weeks of the season, but he has just six catches for 35 yards across his past three games.

  • Cleared to face Seahawks

    Brown (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Demetrius Harvey of the Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Brown was limited in all three of Jacksonville's practices, but his availability for Sunday's game isn't in doubt. He has cooled off after exceeding 50 receiving yards in each of his first two games with the Jaguars, and Brown's target share is likely to fluctuate moving forward given the presence of Brian Thomas, Travis Hunter and Parker Washington in Jacksonville's deep wide receiver room.

  • Another limited showing

    Brown (shoulder) was limited at Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Brown has been tending to a shoulder injury since a Week 3 win against the Texans that sidelined him Week 4 at San Francisco. He was able to return for Monday's game against the Chiefs, hauling in two of four targets for 15 yards while logging 66 percent of the snaps. Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not Brown enters the weekend with a designation in advance of Sunday's contest versus the Seahawks.

  • Estimated as limited in practice

    Brown (shoulder) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate.

    Analysis: Brown, who has been managing a shoulder issue, logged a 66 percent snap share in Monday's 31-28 win over the Chiefs, en route to catching two of his four targets in the contest for 15 yards. With no reported setbacks since then, chances are the wideout's listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related.

  • Two grabs in MNF victory

    Brown caught two of four targets for 15 yards in the Jaguars' win over the Chiefs on Monday night.

    Analysis: Brown injured his shoulder in Week 3 and missed Week 4 but was able to return to the lineup Monday. He played 66 percent of the offensive snaps, which is a tick lower than he'd seen in the first two games of the season. Brown isn't a reliable fantasy starter in standard-sized leagues as the third or fourth receiver in Jacksonville. Brown has a 12-131-1 receiving line on 18 targets across four games.

  • Clear to return in Week 5

    Brown (shoulder) was limited in practice Saturday but doesn't have a designation for Monday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Brown didn't suit up Week 4 due to a shoulder injury that he sustained one week prior, but after being listed as limited on five straight practice reports, the Jaguars have cleared him to return to action. Through parts of three games this season, he's tallied 10 catches (on 14 targets) for 116 yards and one touchdown and three carries for 15 yards.

  • Another limited practice

    Brown (shoulder) remained limited at practice Friday.

    Analysis: Brown, who was inactive Week 4, also was limited Thursday, so he'll probably need to practice fully Saturday in order to approach Monday night's game against the Chiefs without an injury designation. If Brown is limited or out for the contest, Parker Washington would be in line to see added snaps alongside fellow WRs Brian Thomas and Travis Hunter.

  • Limited to kick off Week 5 prep

    Brown (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Brown was limited in a pair of practices last week before he was inactive for Sunday's 26-21 win over the 49ers on Sunday, so he may need to upgrade to full participation in practice by the end of Week 5 prep to guarantee his availability for Monday's matchup with the Chiefs. Through his first three appearances of the season, Brown has accrued a 10-116-1 receiving line on 14 targets while adding 15 yards on three carries.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Brown (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers after practicing in a limited fashion Thursday and Friday.

    Analysis: Brown was forced out of the Jaguars' 17-10 win over the Texans in Week 3 after logging 23 snaps and two catches for seven yards on three targets. Overall, he's compiled a 10-116-1 line on 14 targets in three contests, a pace that limits his fantasy utility to deeper formats while working in a WR corps that also includes Brian Thomas, Travis Hunter and Parker Washington.

    Analysis: Brown exited this past Sunday's game against the Texans in the second half with a shoulder injury that didn't allow him to practice Wednesday. Having said that, he was able to take part in some drills Thursday and appears to be trending in a positive direction. Friday's practice report will reveal if Brown has a designation ahead of Sunday's contest at San Francisco.

    Analysis: Brown didn't practice Wednesday, so his presence on the field a day later is a step in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers. The Jaguars' upcoming injury report will provide added context regarding the wideout's Week 4 status by clarifying his official participation level Thursday.

  • Scores in Week 2 loss

    Brown secured five of seven targets for 57 yards and a touchdown during Jacksonville's 31-27 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

    Analysis: Brown finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Parker Washington (5-76-0 on five targets), outproducing both Brian Thomas (4-49-0 on 12 targets) and Travis Hunter (3-22-0 on six targets). While Thomas and Hunter remain in the top two spots on the depth chart, Brown has racked up over 50 yards in back-to-back weeks as the Jaguars adapt to new head coach Liam Coen's offensive scheme, and the former Commander could be a useful option for fantasy teams in need of a fill-in due to…read more

  • Solid showing in Jags debut

    Brown caught three of four targets for 52 yards and rushed twice for six yards during Sunday's 26-10 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old worked as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout behind Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas and tied for third on the team in targets and receptions while finishing second in receiving yards. Brown joined the Jaguars on a one-year, $10 million deal in March after breaking out in the 2024 playoffs for the Commanders, and he should have a decent chance at a career year in 2025 after posting career highs with 30 receptions and 308 yards last season.

  • No limitations in practice

    Brown (lower body) was a full practice participant Tuesday, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.

    Analysis: Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Brown missed Sunday's preseason game at New Orleans because of stiffness in his lower body. With Travis Hunter (upper body) also banged up, the Jags turned to Parker Washington and Austin Trammell for first-team WR snaps alongside Brian Thomas. Brown's workload in the regular season will partially depend on how much the Jags want to use two-way phenom Hunter on offense.

    Brown will not play in Sunday's preseason game against the Saints.

    Analysis: The Jaguars will be playing most of their offensive starters outside of Brown and Travis Hunter (upper body). Brown played 10 snaps on offense in the Jaguars' preseason opener against the Steelers, turning one carry into seven yards while not seeing a target. The 2021 third-rounder signed a one-year contract with the Jaguars in March after spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Commanders, and he is slated as the WR3 behind Hunter and Brian Thomas.

    After a slow start to training camp, per John Shipley of SI.com, Brown has put together back-to-back good practices.

    Analysis: Per Shipley, Brown made a pair of explosive plays during Tuesday's session and then kept up his momentum Thursday, while "having the best day of any of the wide receivers and showing good chemistry" with starting QB Trevor Lawrence. As the coming campaign approaches, Brown is slated to play a key role in a wideout corps that is led by ascending second-year pro Brian Thomas and also includes WR/CB Travis Hunter, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

  • Headed to Jacksonville

    Brown and the Jaguars reached agreement Monday on a one-year, $10 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: It's a large contract relative to Brown's production -- at least if the initial figures prove semi-accurate -- but it perhaps shouldn't be a total surprise in light of his performance during the 2024 playoffs. After averaging 0.9 catches for 12.4 yards in 63 career regular-season games, Brown exploded for a 14-229-1 line on 18 targets during Washington's three-game playoff run. He's a 2021 third-round pick with 4.46 speed and only 25 years old, so there's reason to think Brown can help the…read more

    Analysis: Brown had emerged as a key contributor in the Washington offense during the team's unlikely postseason run. He took a slight step back in Sunday's loss, as he had a mixed performance that included both positives and negatives. Brown accounted for the team's second-longest play from scrimmage with a 24-yard catch, but he also lost a fumble late in the first quarter to set up a Philadelphia touchdown.

The 2021 third-round pick enjoyed an ascendant regular season and has stepped up his play further since, posting a combined 11-187-1 line on 13 targets over Washington's two postseason victories to date.

    Brown hauled in all five of his targets for 89 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: Brown got the scoring going for Washington when he brought down a 10-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter of Sunday's wild-card round matchup. The fourth-year pro out of North Carolina tacked on 79 more yards in order to finish with his best receiving line in the Commanders' first playoff appearance since drafting the wideout in 2021. Brown may be asked to continue his elevated role in the divisional round if Washington is forced to keep up with Detroit's high-octane offense.

The fourth-year wide receiver played 25 of the Commanders' 58 offensive snaps in the contest, well behind Terry McLaurin (53) and Olamide Zaccheaus (40). In 16 regular-season games this season, Brown recorded 30 receptions on 40 targets for 308 yards and a touchdown, adding three carries for 26 yards.

    Analysis: Brown upgraded to full practice participation Friday to avoid an injury designation after being a non-participant Wednesday and limited Thursday.

    Analysis: This marks Brown's first notable on-field work since injuring his hamstring Week 16 against the Eagles. He thus will have one more session this week Friday to prove his health, at which point the Commanders could make a decision on his availability, or lack thereof, ahead of Sunday's game at Dallas.

His absence opened up more playing time for Olamide Zaccheaus, who took full advantage with three touchdowns over the past two games.

    Analysis: Brown made an early exit from last Sunday's win over the Eagles and didn't practice at all this week.

    Analysis: Brown instead was seen on the side during the open part of Thursday's session, per Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. It's unclear if Brown is in danger of missing Sunday's contest against the Falcons due to the hamstring injury that forced an early exit from a Week 16 matchup versus the Eagles, but the Commanders could make a ruling on that front when they post their final practice report of the week Friday.

  • Nabs three balls Sunday

    Brown had three receptions on four targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Brown continued to serve as the Commanders' No. 2 wideout with Noah Brown (kidney) being placed on injured reserve. The 24-year-old Brown has generated seven receptions for 65 yards in six quarters of action since taking over for his injured namesake. Brown could generate deep-league appeal with his current role in next Sunday's tilt against the Eagles.

  • Replaces Noah Brown

    Brown caught four of five targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 42-19 win over Tennessee, adding one carry for four yards.

    Analysis: Brown picked up extra playing time in the second half after starting wideout Noah Brown left with a rib injury. The added snaps led to a few more targets than usual, and it's possible the former will have an expanded role again after a Week 14 bye if the latter isn't ready for Week 15 at New Orleans.

  • Two grabs in loss

    Brown caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Brown played just 24 of the Commanders' 70 offensive snaps Sunday and was unable to contribute much in the contest. The fourth-year wideout's sparse usage continues to limit his potential for fantasy production, as fellow receivers Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown are seeing most of the targets from quarterback Jayden Daniels. Brown remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Titans.

  • Quiet in loss

    Brown caught two of three targets for minus-13 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Brown played just 16 percent of the Commanders offensive snaps Sunday, his lowest snap share of the season. Though his three targets were his most since Week 7, the fourth-year wideout was unable to turn his opportunities into positive production. Buried behind Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown, Luke McCaffrey and Olamide Zaccheaus on the depth chart, Brown remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Eagles.

  • Targeted once

    Brown caught his lone target for a 24-yard gain in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus and Luke McCaffrey have been rotating snaps behind No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin and No. 2 receiver Noah Brown. This was the fourth straight game in which Dyami Brown caught exactly one pass, and he's now up to eight consecutive weeks with either one or two receptions. There's not much reason to expect more than that Week 10 against Pittsburgh, considering the team's other wide receivers mostly have been playing well.

  • Makes one catch in Week 8 win

    Brown secured his only target for six yards during Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Brown, who played 32 percent of the offensive snaps, continues to mix in with Luke McCaffrey (36 percent) and Olamide Zaccheaus (35 percent) for No. 3 wide receiver reps behind top options Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown. The 2021 third-round pick has now logged seven straight games with at least one catch, but he's averaging just 19.1 yards per contest in that span. Brown will look to do more with his opportunities in Week 9 against the Giants.

  • Ready for Week 8

    Brown (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Bears.

    Analysis: Brown opened the week with back-to-back limited practices due to an ankle injury, but he was able to log a full session Friday, thereby clearing him for Week 8 action. After going without a catch in the season opener, he has at least one reception in six consecutive games, but the cumulative line of 9-128-1 on 13 targets leaves a lot to be desired.

  • Dealing with ankle injury

    Brown was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Brown was fifth among Washington's wide receivers in routes and snaps during Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers. He typically sees around 1-to-3 targets per game, so any limitations for Week 8 wouldn't have much affect on the Commanders' game plan against Chicago.

  • Reels in 23-yard catch

    Brown played 21 of the Commanders' 69 snaps on offense and recorded a 23-yard reception among his three targets in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Brown's 21 snaps placed him fifth among Commanders receivers, with him trailing Terry McLaurin (49), Noah Brown (42), Olamide Zaccheaus (29) and Luke McCaffrey (26). Brown has recorded a catch in six straight games, but he hasn't topped 60 receiving yards in any contest and has found the end zone just once during that stretch. Even in deeper fantasy leagues, Brown doesn't profile as a reliable option.

    Brown caught his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Brown dropped to a 32.0 percent snap share, fifth most among Washington's wide receivers, after handling 55.0 percent the week before with Noah Brown inactive due to a groin injury. The Commanders rotate WRs more than most teams, but Brown would probably need multiple injuries in front of him to see more than 2-3 targets per game. Next up is a Week 7 home game against Carolina.

    Brown caught both of his targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in a 34-13 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Analysis: With Noah Brown (groin) inactive, Brown played 55 percent of snaps on offense, up from 22 percent in Week 3 and 25 percent in Week 4. He beat his defender for a 41-yard TD down the sideline shortly before halftime, but the one big play isn't likely to be enough to break free of a timeshare with Olamide Zaccheaus in the event Brown misses another game Week 6 at Baltimore.

    Analysis: Brown saw his offensive snap percentage increase in Week 2, playing 69 percent of snaps against the Giants after playing 55 percent of snaps in Week 1. The fourth-year wideout's four targets were also an improvement after he didn't see a single target in the Commanders' debut.

  • Not targeted

    Brown wasn't targeted on 12 routes in a 37-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Brown played 55 percent of snaps while rotating with Olamide Zaccheaus, who took 45 percent of snaps and caught one of three targets for 15 yards (on 13 routes). There's a good chance the two WRs continue to share playing time Week 2 against the Giants, but one or the other could potentially emerge as a full-time starter down the road.

    Brown didn't play in Sunday's 20-10 preseason win over New England.

    Analysis: Neither did Olamide Zaccheaus, who seems to be Brown's primary competition for the No. 2 receiver spot after Jahan Dotson was traded to the Eagles last week. Dotson mostly worked the slot during Washington's first two preseason games while Zaccheaus and Brown split perimeter snaps with the first-team offense. One possibility is moving Zaccheaus to the slot and keeping Brown on the perimeter, although that wouldn't necessarily give Brown all the playing time in two-wide sets. Jamison Crowder and…read more

    Analysis: All three receptions came from QB Jayden Daniels on the opening drive, but Brown rotated with Olamide Zaccheaus while Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson played nearly all the first-team snaps. Coach Dan Quinn suggested all the roles are up for grabs behind McLaurin, leaving Dotson, Brown, Zaccheaus and Luke McCaffrey to compete for playing time.

  • Looking good at camp

    Coach Dan Quinn said Thursday that Brown has stood out at training camp, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick is in the final year of his rookie contract and hoping to impress a new coaching staff after catching only 29 passes over his first three seasons. It sounds like the new coaches have taken notice, perhaps giving Brown a chance to compete with Luke McCaffrey, Olamide Zaccheaus and others for the third and fourth spots at wide receiver. Incumbent starters Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson still top the depth chart and figure to take the lion's share of WR targets.

    Brown caught 12 of 23 targets for 168 yards and a touchdown in 17 games during the 2023 season.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick had a quiet year apart from his 35-yard, game-tying touchdown in the final minute of an eventual loss to the Seahawks on Nov. 12. Brown had just two catches for seven yards the rest of the season and played more snaps on special teams than offense in each of Washington's final five games. He'll need to compete for a roster spot in 2024, the final year of his rookie contract.

  • Minimal role in loss

    Brown didn't gain any yardage on his lone reception while playing 11 of the Commanders' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 45-15 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Brown hasn't been able to build on the 35-yard game-tying reception touchdown reception he provided in an eventual 29-26 loss to Seattle in Week 10. In the Commanders' ensuing three contests, Brown has hovered between snap shares of 20 and 25 percent while compiling a 2-7-0 receiving line on five targets. With Washington's receiving corps at full strength at the moment, Brown is unlikely to see his role increase coming out of the team's Week 14 bye.

  • Held to one catch

    Brown caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: An early ejection for Curtis Samuel didn't have much impact on Brown's playing time, as Byron Pringle and Jamison Crowder also took on some of the responsibilities of the No. 3 WR role. There's not much fantasy potential in an offense where even the top two wideouts -- Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson -- are struggling to produce.

    Analysis: Brown played only 18 percent of snaps with Curtis Samuel returning from a toe/foot injury, but one of those plays was a 35-yard, game-tying TD with less than a minute remaining. The Seahawks responded with a field goal shortly thereafter, and Brown likely is looking at a depth role again in Week 11 against the Giants.

    Brown failed to reel in his lone target across 11 snaps on offense in Sunday's 24-16 win over Atlanta.

    Brown caught one of three targets for 11 yards in Thursday's 40-20 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Brown has played between 22 and 32 percent of Washington's snaps on offense each week this season, operating as the No. 4 receiver and mostly seeing looks downfield (15.0 aDOT). He could get more work in the future if Jahan Dotson continues struggling, but there's probably not upside beyond two or three targets per week unless Dotson, Terry McLaurin or Curtis Samuel misses time with an injury.

    Analysis: Brown operated as the Commanders' No. 4 receiver Sunday, playing 25 of the team's 78 offensive snaps. Despite his limited opportunities, the veteran wideout was able to record his highest yardage total of the season so far. Even so, Brown is extremely difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production playing behind fellow pass catchers Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Curtis Samuel and Logan Thomas in Washington's passing attack.

    Brown played 16 of the Commanders' 83 snaps on offense and finished with a 15-yard reception on his lone target in Monday's 32-21 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: Brown's 20 percent snap share played him fifth among Washington wideouts behind Terry McLaurin (86 percent), Curtis Samuel (64 percent), Jahan Dotson (41 percent) and Cam Sims (33 percent). Considering that Dotson was eased back into the mix with a light workload in his return from a five-game absence, both Sims and Brown look like candidates to see their roles reduced further with Dotson's playing time expected to increase in the weeks to come.

It's unclear if the increased practice activity will be enough for Brown to gain clearance to play Sunday, but if he does, he'll likely be stepping into the No. 3 role at receiver behind Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel while rookie first-round pick Jahan Dotson (hamstring) misses a fourth consecutive game.

The wideout's lack of participation Wednesday coupled with his limited role Week 6 suggests he picked up the groin injury in the win over Chicago.

A rookie third-round pick, Brown opened his career with just one catch on four targets through the first four appearances, but he broke out this past Sunday against the Titans with a 2-105-2 line on four targets.

  • On track to play

    Brown (groin), who is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bears, is expected to play, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Washington has already ruled out wideout Jahan Dotson (hamstring) and tight end Logan Thomas (calf) for the second straight week, but Brown looks like he'll avoid an absence due to the groin issue that resulted in him being listed as a limited practice participant Monday through Wednesday. While Dotson was sidelined for the Week 5 loss to the Titans, Brown stepped up to deliver 75- and 30-yard touchdown receptions, but he didn't reel in either of his other two targets across his 20 snaps on…read more

  • Questionable for Thursday's game

    Brown (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Brown was the star for Washington in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Titans, scoring touchdowns from 75 and 30 yards out while playing only 34 percent of snaps on offense. He and Cam Sims split playing time filling in for Jahan Dotson, who is set to miss a second straight game with a hamstring injury. Brown's big Week 5 could lead to more snaps Thursday, if he's able to overcome the groin injury and play.

  • Limited in practice again

    Brown (groin) logged another limited practice Tuesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Brown was also a limited participant on the team's estimated practice report Monday. With the team taking the field Thursday against the Bears, his inability to log a full practice two days out will make his status for Wednesday worth watching. This is especially true with Jahan Dotson (hamstring) still unable to practice, because if both were to sit, Cam Sims and Dax Milne would be worth a look in single-game DFS contests Thursday.

  • Limited on practice estimate

    Brown (groin) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: In Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Titans, Brown logged two catches on four targets for 105 yards and two TDs, while seeing action on 20 snaps on offense. Now that he's popped up on the Commanders' Week 6 injury report, the 2021 third-rounder's status is worth tracking ahead of Thursday's game against the Bears, especially in the wake of his Week 5 breakout effort.

  • Catches two long scores

    Brown recorded two catches on four targets for 105 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Brown made the most of his opportunities and tallied touchdowns of 75 and 30 yards. He has taken advantage of the absence of Jahan Dotson (hamstring) to earn four targets in consecutive games. While that volume isn't enough to give Brown a chance to remain consistently productive, it does represent an increase in his involvement in Washington's offense.

  • Draws season-high four targets

    Brown corralled one of his four targets for a six-yard reception in Sunday's 25-10 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The reception and the targets were the first of the season for Brown, who hadn't drawn a look in the passing game while playing 16 snaps on offense in Washington's first three games. He was still on the field for less than 30 percent of the time in Week 4, but Brown could see his playing time pick up Week 5 against the Titans. The Commanders are unlikely to have rookie wideout Jahan Dotson (hamstring) available for that contest and could turn to Brown to serve as his primary replacement.

  • Plays one snap

    Brown played one snap on offense in a 36-27 loss to Detroit on Sunday.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick has seen four offensive snaps and no targets through two weeks, and he hasn't played all that much on special teams either. Brown's roster spot could come into question this season, depending on Washington's health at wide receiver and needs at other positions.

  • Drops two passes

    Brown caught two of five targets for 42 yards in Saturday's 17-15 loss to Baltimore in the preseason finale.

    Analysis: Brown made a nice snag on his first target but then dropped a couple passes. It's not a great sign, in any case, that he was on the field in a game where all starters were rested. The 2021 third-round pick likely has a roster spot, but only as the fourth or fifth receiver in an offense without much potential.

  • Struggles against Chiefs

    Brown caught two of six targets for nine yards in a preseason loss to Kansas City on Saturday.

    Analysis: While the 2021 third-round pick reportedly has displayed progress at training camp, he has only 23 yards from nine targets through two preseason games. Cam Sims, meanwhile, scored a TD on Saturday, making his own case for the No. 4 WR role. The top three appears pretty set with Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel, leaving Brown, Sims and others to compete for depth roles.

  • Making case for role

    Brown had a good first week of training camp, making a number of catches downfield, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick had minimal impact as a rookie, despite getting some starts at the beginning and end of the season. He'll likely be a backup again if everyone is healthy, potentially coming off the bench to provide a deep threat as the No. 4 receiver. Granted, the Commanders don't lack for speed in their starting WR group, with Terry McLaurin joined by Curtis Samuel and first-round pick Jahan Dotson. An opening for Brown to make a fantasy impact might require an injury to one of those…read more

  • Gets some run with starters

    Brown isn't likely to have an every-down role this year, but he did run with the first-team offense in Terry McLaurin's absence throughout most of the offseason program, Ethan Cadeaux of NBC Sports reports.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick actually opened his rookie season as a starter, but he lost the job after a slow start and then dealt with a knee injury. Brown ultimately caught only 12 of 25 targets for 165 yards in 15 games (six starts), and the Commanders then took WR Jahan Dotson in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft. The team likely envisions a top three comprised of Terry McLaurin, Dotson and a finally healthy Curtis Samuel, with Brown perhaps coming off the bench as a part-time deep threat.…read more

  • Disappointing debut campaign

    Brown finished his 2021 rookie season with 12 catches for 165 yards on 25 targets, playing 15 of 17 games and logging 335 snaps on offense.

    Analysis: The third-round pick started his first three games and five of his first six, yet entered the midpoint of the season with only eight catches for 81 yards. Brown then averaged only 11.2 snaps on offense over his final 10 games, stuck in a bench role even as Washington had minimal success finding productive pass catchers apart from top WR Terry McLaurin. While the 22-year-old Brown could get another shot at a starting job come spring/summer, there's no doubt his initial pro campaign was…read more

  • Catches two passes

    Brown played 13 snaps in Sunday's 56-14 loss to Dallas and caught both his targets for 53 yards.

    Analysis: It's been a quiet rookie year for the third-round pick, even though he got plenty of playing time early on. He's been either injured or buried on the depth chart since October, but Brown finally made a big play with his 48-yard gain in the first quarter of Sunday's loss. While a starting job may not be in the cards this year, it is possible Brown gets a little more playing time over the final couple weeks of the season, perhaps stealings snaps from DeAndre Carter.

  • Catches only target

    Brown caught his only target for six yards during Sunday's 17-15 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Brown played just six offensive snaps, sixth most among Washington's wideouts. The rookie third-round pick has continued to see his playing time significantly drop off since the beginning of the season and remains a long shot for a breakout down the stretch. It's unclear if the reduced snaps has anything to do with a lingering issue from the knee injury he suffered against the Packers in Week 7, or if it's strictly performance-based. Regardless, he likely remains a risky fantasy option moving…read more

    Brown played eight snaps on offense without drawing any targets in Sunday's 29-19 win over the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Curtis Samuel (groin) was out again, but Washington otherwise had all its wide receivers healthy and chose to use DeAndre Carter (3-56-1 on six targets and 67 percent snap share) as its No. 2 receiver. Brown, Dax Milne (27 percent) and Cam Sims (18 percent) also rotated in for some snaps, but it was mostly Carter and slot specialist Adam Humphries (52 percent) lining up alongside No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin (96 percent).

    Analysis: With Curtis Samuel (groin) out at least one more week, Brown could have a starting spot if he ends up playing. Of course, he hasn't been able to turn snaps and routes into targets and catches this year, and Washington could also give DeAndre Carter and Cam Sims some chances across from go-to guy Terry McLaurin.

With Curtis Samuel (groin) unlikely to be available Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Brown could be the other outside receiver opposite Terry McLaurin this weekend while Adam Humphries mans the slot.

The rookie third-rounder hasn't done much through four games, with a cumulative 5-51-0 receiving line on 13 targets and one carry for minus-4 yards.

    Brown finished without a catch on two targets and took one carry for a loss of four yards in Sunday's 43-21 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: The rookie third-round pick hasn't done much through his first three games, despite handling the No. 2 receiver role -- at least in terms of snaps -- while Curtis Samuel (groin) has been on injured reserve throughout September. Samuel is eligible to return Week 4 at Atlanta, but it won't come as any surprise if he misses another game, which could allow Brown to make another start. The rookie has caught just four of his 12 targets for 32 yards.

    Brown and Cam Sims are the top candidates to see more snaps after Curtis Samuel (groin) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Peter Hailey of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: Samuel has filled a few different roles over the years, and in Washington he was expected to be the No. 2 receiver, likely taking a lot of perimeter snaps given that slot specialist Adam Humphries also is on the team. Samuel's absence could lead to more touches for Humphries and satellite back J.D. McKissic, but Brown and Sims are more likely to benefit in terms of snap count.

    Brown recorded two receptions on four targets for 33 yards in Friday's preseason game against Cincinnati.

    Analysis: Brown had mixed results in his second professional game. He began the contest with a drop -- albeit on a tough opportunity -- but he bounced back to record a 29-yard catch over cornerback Darius Phillips. With Curtis Samuel (groin) still sidelined, Brown had valuable reps with presumed starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Though he may start the season in a reserve role, Brown figures to have the chance to enter three-receiver sets at some point in the campaign.

The two later hooked up for nine yards on a 3rd-and-3 shortly before halftime, setting up Washington's first TD of the night. It was a solid first showing for Brown, especially given that none of Washington's other wide receivers had big games.
