Vrabel: Tough couple weeks for WR A.J. Brown (hamstring)

Sep 27, 2021

Mike Vrabel acknowledged that it has been a tough couple of weeks for A.J. Brown but said he's confident that Brown will pull through it. "It's a long season and we all go through some ups and downs."

Vrabel said he's confident Brown can be back to being the player he was. HIs fantasy owners are hoping for that as well. Brown tallied four catches for 43 yards and a score in Week 1, but had just three catches for 43 yards and had several drops in Week 2. To make matters worse, Brown's Week 3 was cut short with a hamstring injury. There was no other information as far as his status for Week 4 goes.

Jones lost some playing time as well, with other reports saying he was having his workload managed. We'll have to see if Jones appears on the injury report this week as the Titans could be short-handed at the position heading into Week 4.

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
