Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: Considered full participant Tuesday
Rotowire
Brown (groin) was estimated to be a full participant at the Seahawks' walkthrough Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Brown opened the week as a limited participant Monday with an apparent groin issue, but the tight end now appears to be a full go ahead of Week 6. The 30-year-old has recorded three catches for 19 yards over three games with Seattle this season.

Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: Minimal production against Lions
Rotowire
Brown caught one of two targets for three yards in Monday's 42-29 loss to the Lions.
Brown finished with just one catch on two targets for the second-straight contest. The veteran tight end's 31 percent snap share was down from Week 3, as teammates Noah Fant and AJ Barner both played ahead of him. Brown remains in a depth role with limited opportunities in Seattle's offense, keeping him off the fantasy radar heading into Week 5 matchup with the Giants.

Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: One catch in debut
Rotowire
Brown caught one of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 24-3 win over the Dolphins.
Brown made his season debut and played 43 percent of the offensive snaps. The role wasn't very lucrative for fantasy purposes, but it's encouraging that he finished second among tight ends in snap share.

Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: Making season debut
Rotowire
Brown (foot) is active Sunday against the Dolphins.
Brown has yet to suit up this season due to the injury, but after logging three straight limited practices this week, the 30-year-old will take the field. However, it wouldn't be surprising if he saw a limited role with the amount of time he's spent on the shelf going back to training camp.

Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: Limited to open week
Rotowire
Brown (foot) was a limited participant at the Seahawks' practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Brown has been forced to miss the team's first two games of the season with a foot injury, but his ability to practice Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The tight end was limited at practice last week before ultimately being ruled out and he'll look to log a full session prior to Sunday's matchup with the Dolphins.

Rotowire
Brown (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Brown is now in line to miss his second consecutive game in Week 2 as he recovers from the foot injury he sustained in mid-August. Expect AJ Barner to continue serving as Seattle's No. 2 tight end until Brown has recovered enough to make his Seahawks debut.

Seahawks' Pharaoh Brown: Logs another DNP
Rotowire
Brown (foot) was absent from Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Brown has now logged back-to-back DNP's to start the week. He has one more chance Friday to practice in some capacity ahead of Sunday's regular-season opener against the Broncos. If Brown were to be ruled out for Week 1, Brady Russell and AJ Barner would be in line for more backup tight-end snaps behind starter Noah Fant (toe).

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Logs 13 catches in 2023
Rotowire
Brown finished the 2023 season with 13 catches (on 15 targets) for 208 yards and a touchdown in 17 games with the Patriots.
Brown, who turns 30 in May, carved out a niche in the Patriots offense this past season alongside fellow TEs Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki, making his mark as a run blocker, while also logging six receptions that resulted in 15-plus yard gains, per Evan Lazar of the team's official site. Brown is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason and should be able to land another opportunity to work in a complementary role in 2024, be it in New England or elsewhere.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Active for Sunday's game
Rotowire
Brown (ribs) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Brown, who practiced in a limited fashion this past week, approached the contest listed as questionable, but he'll be able to give it a go in the Patriots' season finale. With Hunter Henry (knee) sidelined Sunday, Mike Gesicki and Brown are slated to lead the team's Week 18 TE corps, but Brown hasn't caught more than two passes in any of the 16 games that he's suited up for this season, so he's only a fantasy option in the deepest of formats.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Chance to play Week 18
Rotowire
Brown (ribs) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.
Brown likely suffered a ribs injury during New England's Week 17 loss to the Bills, but he was able to practice in a limited fashion throughout the week, and he has a chance to play Sunday. The 29-year-old saw his highest snap share of the season (68 percent) in last Sunday's loss, and he could have the opportunity to see increased work on a Patriots offense that's without Hunter Henry (knee) again in Week 18.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: One catch Sunday
Rotowire
Brown caught his only target for five yards in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Bills.
With Hunter Henry (knee) sidelined for the second straight game, Brown and Mike Gesicki both logged 36 of a possible 53 snaps on offense Sunday. However, it was Gesicki who did more in the passing game, catching four of his six targets for 35 yards. As the Patriots' season finale against the Jets approaches, Brown is off the fantasy lineup radar, with an overall 12-208-1 receiving line through 16 games.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Late addition to injury report
Rotowire
Brown has been deemed questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a foot injury.
Brown wasn't listed on the Patriots' injury report until Saturday, so it's unclear when the foot issue cropped up. The veteran tight end regularly logs about half of New England's offensive snaps, but his work as a pass catcher has been limited. Over his past five games, Brown has totaled just one catch on one target for four yards.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Active for Sunday's game
Rotowire
Brown (back) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
After missing practice Wednesday, Brown returned to limited sessions Thursday and Friday prior to being listed as questionable for Week 9 action. The tight end will be out there Sunday, but given that he continues to work in a time-share with Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki, Brown's weekly fantasy upside is limited.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown didn't practice Wednesday due to a back injury.
Brown logged 21 of the Patriots' 53 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, catching both of his targets for 33 yards. Now that the tight end has missed Wednesday's practice, he'll have two more chances to return to the field ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. If Brown is able to suit up this weekend, he'll continue to work in a timeshare at tight end with Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Catches two passes Sunday
Rotowire
Brown played 21 of 53 snaps on offense and caught both of his targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Dolphins.
Brown, who now has four catches for 84 yards over his last two outings, actually out-snapped Mike Gesicki (15 snaps, two catches) Sunday, but with Hunter Henry (31 snaps, three catches) also in the mix, he's involved in a timeshare at tight end that limits his weekly fantasy ceiling.

Patriots' Pharaoh Brown: Scores TD versus Jets
Rotowire
Brown caught both of his targets for 71 yards and a TD in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Jets.
Though Brown, who logged 25 snaps Sunday, saw less playing time than fellow TEs Hunter Henry (62 snaps) and Mike Gesicki (34), the 58-yard score that the 29-year-old recorded in the second quarter of the contest resulted in him being the Patriots' leading Week 3 receiver in terms of yardage. Given that Brown didn't catch any passes during the team's first two contests, he's not a high-percentage fantasy option as long as Henry and Gesicki remain available.
