TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. New Orleans Saints
A.J. Brown had been trending in all the right directions before a Week 9 performance that was tanked by an oddly positive game script. The Titans dominated the Rams last week and barely had to throw to do so, with Matthew Stafford giving the Titans short fields and a pick-six along the way. The result was a 5-42-0 line from Brown, his worst performance in weeks. That risk will still be there this week as the Titans take on a Saints team currently starting Trevor Siemian at QB, but the tough Saints defense will likely keep New Orleans competitive at the very least. Brown will likely get a healthy dose of Marshon Lattimore in this one. Lattimore is a good corner but not on the shutdown level where he affects an opposing receiver's fantasy outlook. Keep the faith in Brown's talent and roll him out as a borderline WR1 with Julio Jones again looking banged up.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Los Angeles Rams
It took A.J. Brown six weeks to get going, but it appears he is back to being an elite downfield receiver based on his last three games. Brown has registered 29 targets the past three weeks, turning that workload into 25 catches for 379 yards and two touchdowns. After dealing with injuries and illness early in the season, Brown is back to dominating corners in the air and after the catch, and the Titans will be forced to rely on him more than ever following the devastating injury to bellcow RB Derrick Henry. Julio Jones looks questionable for Week 9, and Brown would be poised to see a massive workload if Jones sits out again. The matchup against the Rams in Week 9 is a bit concerning as there is a good chance Brown sees a healthy dose of Jalen Ramsey in coverage, but Jones's presence will mitigate that matchup concern if he's active. Brown's recent play had elevated him back to WR1 status, but the tough matchup probably drops him into the WR2 category this week, but still clearly a fantasy starter in all leagues.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Indianapolis Colts
The buy-low window for A.J. Brown has slammed shut over the past two weeks following his recovery from a hamstring injury and apparent food poisoning. Brown has 18 targets over his past two games, and he's caught 15 of those for 224 yards and a touchdown. Brown has finally restored his downfield connection with Ryan Tannehill and continues to be the top target in Tennessee with Julio Jones constantly banged up. With the issues that plagued him early in the season apparently behind him, Brown looks poised to finish strong and continue his play from the past two weeks. Week 8 will bring a matchup against a Colts secondary that has been mediocre at best against receivers to this point in 2021 (ranked 21st in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WR). After a couple of weeks of strong play, Brown is back on the WR1/2 borderline for fantasy managers in Week 8.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
After being a late addition to the injury report with a stomach bug, A.J. Brown managed to play through it on Monday night, turning in a 7-91-0 line on nine targets. Brown led the team in targets and was finally able to connect with Ryan Tannehill on a couple of downfield throws after a disastrous start to the season. It's difficult to describe Brown as anything other than a massive bust at his ADP through the first six weeks, but last week provided some optimism that Brown is behind the issues that have plagued him thus far and could turn it around for a strong second half.

Week 7 would be a great spot to keep things going in the right direction, as Brown will match up with the porous Kansas City defense in a game that projects to be a high-scoring affair. The Titans will always be based on the running attack with Derrick Henry in the backfield, but Brown will be needed more than ever to move the ball through the air with Julio Jones injured yet again. Start Brown as a strong WR2 this week who could easily explode for WR1 numbers.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Buffalo Bills
A.J. Brown's 2021 season has been one of the most disappointing in fantasy. He's missed one game, got injured early in another, and only has 10 catches through five weeks. It's difficult to project big improvement this week in a difficult matchup against Buffalo, but it's also true that it would be hard for things to get much worse for Brown. Julio Jones's return may dent Brown's projected target share, but it also may pull some coverage away from Brown and open things up for him down the field. Despite the frustrating start, Brown has to be started given his upside, and fantasy managers will hope we've already seen the depths of his floor for 2021.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Jacksonville Jaguars
A.J. Brown looks poised to play after returning to practice this week, including full sessions on Thursday and Friday. Brown will return to a plush matchup with the woeful Jaguars defense. Brown has had an abysmal year so far, pairing some slow performances with an early exit in Week 3 and a DNP last week. Brown will carry immediate bounce-back potential if he returns on Sunday in light of Jones's absence and the plus matchup. Monitor Brown's status before game time on Sunday, but if he's active insert him into lineups as a borderline WR1.

TEN WR A.J. Brown - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Indianapolis Colts
A.J. Brown's pedestrian 3-43 line in Week 2 was the product of missed opportunities. Brown led the team with nine targets and 128 air yards but had multiple passes deflect off his hands, including one early in the game that could have gone for a long touchdown. Brown's slow start could be a thing of the past as soon as this week when the Titans host the Colts secondary that has been less than impressive in giving up huge days to Tyler Lockett and Cooper Kupp. Brown still ranks inside the top 10 in air yards on the season, he just hasn't converted his opportunities at a high rate yet. Expect the box score regression to hit quickly once Ryan Tannehill and Brown connect on a few deep balls. Keep Brown locked into lineups this week and expect better results.
