2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brown showed signs of breaking out in 2022 while with the Cowboys. In that season, he posted 555 yards and three touchdowns. In his first year with the Texans, Brown had a wild season. Due to injuries, the receiver played two games through Week 7. In Weeks 8-10, Brown was on fire, averaging 5.3 catches and 127 yards. Another injury cost Brown two games.Upon his return, he had three games with fewer than 10 yards and one with 82 yards and a touchdown. The overall picture tells us that Brown is very talented but not very reliable. After the Texans traded for Stefon Diggs, Brown will be competing for the No. 4 role. As a result, he would need others to miss time to be viewed as a fantasy factor. Read Past Outlooks

Could make team debut Sunday
Head coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday that Brown is "definitely trending in the right direction" to be active for Sunday's game against the Giants, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown was a healthy inactive for the Commanders in Week 1, but that decision seems to be mostly a result of the veteran wideout needing more time to get fully acclimated to a new offensive scheme, per Ben Standig of The Athletic. Behind No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin, there's room for Brown to carve out a notable role on offense as rookie Luke McCaffrey and veterans Olamide Zaccheaus and Dyami Brown don't represent insurmountable competition for playing time. It may take a bit more time for Brown to work up to a full snap share, though, after he didn't sign with Washington until late August.

2017
Brown posted career highs across the board during his fifth season in Dallas in 2022, including a significant upgrade in snaps. After the Cowboys traded Amari Cooper to Cleveland and lost Cedrick Wilson to the Dolphins, the 2017 seventh-rounder was presented his biggest opportunity as a pro, en route to finishing with 43 catches for 555 yards and three touchdowns over 16 games. Despite what can be perceived as a career year, the Cowboys didn't put up much resistance in letting him walk. Brown's production dropped off over the final stretch and had just seven catches over the last three regular season games and two playoff contests. With Houston, Brown's experience could work in his favor in a mostly inexperienced wideout room.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Early chemistry with Daniels
Brown, who signed with the Commanders on Wednesday after being cut by the Texans on Tuesday, has already begun developing strong chemistry with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown was a surprise cut from Texans' roster, but it didn't take long for the 2017 seventh-round pick to catch on with the Commanders, who needed to bolster their depth at wideout after trading Jahan Dotson to the Eagles. Brown got to work right away with Daniels at practice, and the former told reporters after Thursday's session that he was "impressed with how [Daniels] operates, how he takes control of things." Brown played in just 10 regular-season games in 2023 due to various injuries, but he still managed to record a career-high 567 receiving yards on 33 catches while adding two touchdowns.
