A.J. Brown Injury Update For Fantasy Football: Add Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas Value & More
FantasyLife • • sports
Key Points:
- A.J. Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Patriots' season opener, likely sidelining him for 2-4 weeks, similar to CeeDee Lamb's injury timeline last year.
- With Brown injured, the Patriots are expected to revert to a wide receiver-by-committee approach, featuring Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas, Mack Hollins, and Kyle Williams.
- DeMario Douglas led the team with seven targets after Brown's exit, while Romeo Doubs, despite a poor debut, remains a potential waiver wire option due to his contract and expected involvement.
- Mack Hollins showed promise as a reliable target in 12 personnel and could see increased usage in Brown's absence.
- Fantasy managers with A.J. Brown on their roster should prepare for his absence and consider alternative wide receiver options from the waiver wire.
