JOHN BROWN NEWS

Back to work Brown (knee) is expected to practice Wednesday after sitting out the Bills' Week 7 win over the Jets, The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Brown sat out the Bills' Week 5 loss to the Titans with the same injury, though he gutted it out Week 6, when it was obvious he was playing hurt after he caught zero balls on no targets in a loss to Kansas City. Even limited participation in practice to begin Week 8 would bode well for his chances of returning to action Sunday against the Patriots.

Not playing Week 7 The Bills have ruled Brown (knee) out for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Impact Despite playing all but two of the Bills' offensive snaps in Monday's loss to the Chiefs, Brown was a non-factor in the passing game while he returned to the lineup after a one-game absence due to the knee injury. The wideout may have aggravated the injury in the contest, as he failed to practice in any capacity Wednesday through Friday before the Bills ruled him out for the Week 7 contest. Expect Gabriel Davis to take Brown's spot in the lineup, joining Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley in three-wide sets.

Injury Report | John Brown, Josh Norman and Cody Ford out for Sunday's game Here's a look at the injury report heading into the Jets game.

Not spotted at Friday's practice Brown (knee) is not present at the early portion of Friday's practice, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

Impact Brown appears to be missing his third straight practice session of the week, which would cast serious doubt about his availability for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Jets. The veteran wideout missed Week 5 due to the same injury, but he did manage to suit up against the Chiefs in Week 6, and it's worth noting that he does boast enough experience to conceivably suit up without having gone through any practices. The release of Buffalo's official injury report Friday afternoon should provide a clearer update on Brown's chances of playing.

Sits out practice Thursday Brown (knee) missed practice again Thursday, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Back-to-back absences set the stage for Friday's practice to be a key determinant in Brown's Week 7 status. If he's out or limited Sunday against the Jets, Gabriel Davis would be in line to see added snaps alongside Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley.

Sits out practice Wednesday Brown (knee) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact The wideout, who sat out Week 5 action due to a knee injury, was on the field for 51 of the Bills' 53 snaps on offense in this past Monday's 26-17 loss to the Chiefs. With no reported setbacks in the contest, his absence from practice Wednesday seems likely to be maintenance-related, a scenario that would be confirmed as long Brown returns to practice in some capacity Thursday.

Won't practice Wednesday Brown (undisclosed) won't practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Though he was on the field for 51 of the Bills' 53 snaps on offense in Monday's 26-17 loss to the Chiefs, Brown failed to haul in any of his four targets. Given his workload in that contest, his absence from practice Wednesday seems more likely to be maintenance-related than indicative of a setback with the knee issue that kept him out of action in Week 5.

Goose egg in loss Brown failed to catch any of his four targets in Monday's 26-17 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact Brown overcame a questionable tag to return from a knee injury that sidelined him in Week 5. Although he was back in action, Brown failed to make an impact, starting the game by having a pass bounce off his facemask to stall Buffalo's opening drive. While consistent rain hampered the Bills' offense as a whole, Brown will still be eager to get back to his usual self in Week 7 versus the Jets, a team he caught six passes for 70 yards and a touchdown against to start this season.

Suits up Monday Brown (knee) is listed as active for Monday's game against the Chiefs, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact With Brown back after a one-game absence, look for Gabriel Davis to revert to a secondary role Monday, while Stefon Diggs, Brown and Cole Beasley head the Bills' Week 6 wide receiver corps. Assuming no in-game setbacks, Brown should see his share of targets, especially if the Chiefs elect to focus on containing Diggs, who racked up 10 catches for 106 yards in last Tuesday's loss to the Titans.

OCTOBER 19, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as questionable Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Chiefs.

Impact Fantasy managers should pay attention to Brown's practice log, as the wide receiver was a full participant in practice each of the last two days, but surprisingly only practiced in limited fashion Saturday. It's not an immediate cause for concern, namely because the Bills are still listing Brown as questionable despite the practice downgrade, but it's certainly something to monitor ahead of Monday's 5:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Brown's absence in Tuesday's loss to the Titans set the stage for Gabriel Davis to register a season-high 72 snaps, which would likely be a similar outcome this week if Brown were unable to suit up.

Logs another full practice Brown (knee) practiced fully Friday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Brown was also listed as a full participant Thursday, but that session was more of a jog-through. With a normal practice now under his belt, Brown is in line to return to action Monday against the Chiefs. In that scenario Gabriel Davis would presumably revert to a secondary role, while Brown, Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley head the Bills' Week 6 wide receiver corps.

Full practice Thursday Brown (knee) was considered a full practice participant for Thursday's jog-through session, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact While we need to see how Brown does in more serious practice conditions Friday and Saturday, this bodes well for his chances of playing Monday against the Chiefs after missing Tuesday's loss to the Titans.

OCTOBER 15, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Participating in jog-through Brown (knee) will participate in Thursday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Impact Though coach Sean McDermott noted that the session will be a "jog through," it's still a good sign that Brown will be out there with his teammates as the Bills prepare for Monday's game against the Chiefs. The wideout was inactive Week 5, which paved the way for Stefon Diggs, Gabriel Davis and Cole Beasley to head Buffalo's wide receiver corps in this past Tuesday's 42-16 loss to the Titans.
