2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brown is entering his third year with the Commanders. Aside from running a 4.46 40-yard dash, Brown's agility and explosiveness tested slightly below average. At 6-0, 195 pounds, Brown may benefit if settling into a role in the slot. However, with less than 170 yards and 13 receptions in each of his three seasons, it would appear unlikely that Brown is in line for a breakout season. He does have a path to snaps, or at least a part-time role, as the Commanders traded Jahan Dotson in August and sorely lack WR talent beyond Terry McLaurin. Read Past Outlooks

Career game in playoff win
WRWashington Commanders
January 12, 2025
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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
A 2021 third-round pick, Brown has drawn only 39 targets in 30 career games, mostly serving as Washington's fourth or fifth receiver. He averaged 18.7 yards per catch at UNC and ran a 4.46 40 coming out of college, albeit at only 189 pounds. Brown isn't in the mix for a top-3 role this offseason, instead competing with a group that includes Marcus Kemp and Dax Milne for depth spots behind the lead trio of Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel.
Brown, the 82nd overall pick in the 2021 Draft, had a quiet rookie season, despite getting some chances to play. The Commanders' poor depth at wide receiver allowed him to make six starts in 15 games, but he finished the year with only 12 catches and no touchdowns, limited by his own struggles as well as the team's poor quarterback play. Brown now profiles as a depth player after Washington drafted WR Jahan Datson in the first round, but there's an opening if the rookie struggles or Curtis Samuel again is unable to stay healthy.
Brown had second-round buzz coming out of North Carolina, backing up consecutive 1,000-yard seasons with a 4.46 40-yard dash at his pro day. His speed isn't exactly a secret, yet he lasted until late in the third round of the 2021 Draft, eventually going 82nd overall to Washington. The rookie seems most likely to open his career somewhere between fourth and sixth on the wideout depth chart, but he might instead push Adam Humphries for the No. 3 role, which in turn could mean more slot snaps for Terry McLaurin and/or Curtis Samuel. Either way, it's McLaurin and Samuel who figure to see most of the targets, while Brown will need time to develop beyond his current skill set as a big-play guy.
