A.J. Brown Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

A.J. Brown (knee) did not practice Friday, Jalen Hurts (finger) practiced in full, Britain Covey (groin) was limited.

PHI WR A.J. Brown (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

A.J. Brown (calf) logged a DNP Thursday ahead of the Titans matchup on Sunday with the Miami Dolphins. Brown is dealing with a calf injury but it is not expected to impact his status for this weekend's game. Brown should be ready to build off the monster performance he had last week and can be considered in most DFS formats. It will be important to ensure Brown's availability for this weekend by checking his game designation listed on the injury report released tomorrow.

A.J. Brown and RB Jeremy McNichols have officially been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. With Brown out, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Dez Fitzpatrick will be in line to play a much bigger role in the Titans passing game and could be considered as value options. Jeremy McNichols is still dealing with a concussion and will once again be unable to go again this weekend, the Titans backfield will likely be split between Dontrell Hilliard (passing downs) and D’Onta Foreman (early down work).

A.J. Brown and Jeremy McNichols logged DNPs Wednesday ahead of the Titans matchup with the New England Patriots on Sunday. Brown's status still seems to be in question for this weekend and it will be important to monitor his practice participation going forward. If he were to be ruled out, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Dez Fitzpatrick would be in line to play a much bigger role in the Titans passing game and could be considered as value options. Jeremy McNichols is still dealing with a concussion and if he were unable to go again this weekend the Titans backfield would likely be split between Dontrell Hilliard (passing downs) and D'Onta Foreman (early down work).

As expected, A.J. Brown "should be fine today" to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Brown could be slightly limited which would mean Julio Jones and Marcus Johnson could see a few more targets. Brown should be considered as the top receiving option for the Titans in a tough matchup against the Rams defense.

The Titans WR room looks to be coming in shape as they prepare for a divisional clash against the Indianapolis Colts. Brown practiced in full and looks to be back. Rogers was upgraded to limited and should be in line to play. Reynolds popped up as DNP due to an illness, but has been in the doghouse anyways and won't be relevant. The big name is Julio Jones, who had his second straight DNP due to a hamstring issue. Jones was able to play last week despite not practicing, so he may still play, but it's clear that the hamstring is a lingering issue and may bother him throughout the year. In a game with one of the highest totals on the week, Jones's absence would pay more dividends for A.J. Brown than anyone else.
