• Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Returning to Kansas City

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  The Chiefs signed Brown to a one-year deal worth up to $11 million on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Brown missed most of the 2024 regular season due to a sternoclavicular joint injury that he suffered during the preseason. He was able to return in Week 16 against the Texans, and across the Chiefs' final five games of the 2024 campaign (including three playoff games), Brown accumulated 14 catches (on 28 targets) for 141 yards. With a full offseason under his belt, Brown will look to stay healthy and give Patrick Mahomes a speed-threat option in the passing game for the 2025 season.

• Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Wanted back by Kansas City

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Kansas City general manager Brett Veach said Tuesday at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine that the team "will look to get [Brown] back," Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports. Brown, who missed the first 15 weeks of the 2024 season due to a sternoclavicular joint injury sustained in the preseason, is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent March 12. He produced 50 receiving yards on five catches (13 targets) across three postseason appearances after posting 91 yards on nine catches (15 targets) across his two regular-season games. Heading into his age-28 season, a return to Kansas City could be the best scenario for Brown's fantasy value, though Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice (knee) are projected to lead the team's wide receiver corps in 2025.

• Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Largely lost season in 2024

  02/13/2025 • By RotoWire

  Brown finished the 2024 regular season with just nine catches (on 15 targets) for 91 yards over two games played. Brown joined the Chiefs on a one-year pact during the offseason aiming to better his contract options this offseason, but a preseason shoulder injury cost him most of the 2024 regular season. He did compile nine catches over the final two regular-season contests but didn't contribute a ton in the Chiefs' three playoff contests, combining for just five catches for 50 yards on 13 targets. The vertical threat has missed time in the last three seasons and hasn't really shined in the last pair. However, he still has a 1,000-yard receiving campaign under his belt and is only entering his age 28 season in 2025, so there will likely be several teams interested in his services as an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

• Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Targeted five times in AFCCG win

  01/27/2025 • By RotoWire

  Brown had three receptions on five targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 32-29 AFC Championship Game win over the Bills. Brown's five targets were second among Kansas City receivers after he finished with zero receptions on two targets against the Texans in the divisional round. The veteran wideout could have had a bigger fantasy score if he was able to secure a deep sideline pass from Patrick Mahomes in the second half that hit him in the hands. Brown joins teammates DeAndre Hopkins and JuJu Smith-Schuster as a group of veteran WRs who could either pop off or produce next to nothing when the Chiefs face the Eagles on Feb. 9 in Super Bowl LIX.

• Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Finishes with 46 yards Wednesday

  12/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Brown recorded four receptions for 46 yards on seven targets in Wednesday's 29-10 win over Pittsburgh. Brown finished third in both targets and receptions for Kansas City, but he failed to bring in any of Patrick Mahomes' trio of touchdown passes in the win. The 27-year-old Brown has produced nine receptions for 91 yards in two games with the Chiefs this season. Though the Chiefs have clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs and have little at stake in the Week 18 regular-season finale versus the Broncos, Brown could still play in that contest to get some more reps under his belt in advance of the postseason after missing the first 14 games of the campaign due to a dislocated shoulder.
