News: 3 days agoBrown recorded five receptions on six targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.

Spin: Brown maintained a significant role in the Commanders' offense and has now earned at least six targets in three of his last four games. While he didn't replicate his heroics from Week 8, Brown did manage lengthy receptions of 31 and 16 yards to account for the majority of his production. Notably, he appears to be preferred as the second receiver option behind Terry McLaurin, surpassing Olamide Zaccheaus for the time being.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: After averaging roughly 12 yards per catch in his first five seasons with the Cowboys, Brown's trip to Houston saw him erupt with 17.2 yards per reception, good for sixth among all players with at least 25 targets in 2023. Brought back for 2024 on a one-year pact thanks to such success working with C.J. Stroud, Brown figures to compete for vertical routes as a complementary option for this impressive collective of pass-catchers Houston has amassed. Unfortunately, he won't see enough volume to warrant starting lineup consideration in fantasy.
