Gets in end zone during SB LV win
Brown (knee) secured five of six targets for 22 yards and a touchdown during the Buccaneers' 31-9 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran midseason pickup was second in receptions to Rob Gronkowski on the night, and his one-yard touchdown grab just before halftime gave the Buccaneers a commanding 21-6 lead. Brown's signing, which was the subject of some skepticism when it unfolded, ultimately paid significant dividends. The 32-year-old finished his eight-game regular season with a 45-483-4 line, and he ended up with two scoring grabs overall in three postseason games. Brown will head into unrestricted free agency in…read more

Suiting up in Super Bowl
Brown (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's Super Bowl LV versus the Chiefs, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: A knee injury sidelined Brown for the NFC Championship Game, but with three weeks to rest up since his last game action in the divisional round at New Orleans he'll be out there for Tom Brady. Brown had one of his worst statistical performances of the season against Kansas City back in Week 12 -- two catches for 11 yards on three targets -- so he'll look to be more involved in a receiving corps led by Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

Listed as questionable, should play
Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for the Super Bowl, despite being a full practice participant Thursday and Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It would be unusual for a player to miss a game -- especially this game -- after logging back-to-back full practices at the end of the week. Brown should return to action after missing the NFC Championship Game, though he won't necessarily be at 100 percent strength. The Chiefs and Bucs should release inactive lists around 5:00 p.m. ET, with Brown, TE Cameron Brate (back) and Chiefs WR Sammy Watkins (calf) the three names to keep a close eye on.

Returns to full practice
Brown (knee) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: After logging a limited practice Wednesday, Brown progressed to a full session Thursday. Per Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site, coach Bruce Arians noted that the wideout "looked good" in practice and that the team will be on the lookout Friday to see if the running Brown did Thursday resulted in any swelling in his knee. If not, Brown has a chance to approach Sunday's Super Bowl against Kansas City minus an injury designation.

Returns on limited basis
Brown (knee) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Though Brown was held out of practice entirely during the first week of Super Bowl LV prep, head coach Bruce Arians said Monday that the wide receiver was "getting close" to moving past the knee injury that sidelined him in the NFC Championship Game. Brown's ability to get on the field Wednesday is a sign he's trending in the right direction, but he has two more practices to navigate before the Bucs decide whether to give him a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Limited practice on tap
Brown (knee) is expected to be limited at practice Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Brown didn't practice in any capacity last week, so any activity at Wednesday's session would be encouraging with regard to his status for Sunday's Super Bowl LV matchup with the Chiefs. How Brown's knee responds to practice over the next few days should dictate whether the wideout heads into the weekend with or without an injury designation.

Trending in right direction
Coach Bruce Arians said Monday that Brown (knee) is "getting close" and has been able to get some work in on the side.
Analysis: Brown didn't practice at all last week and was estimated as 'doubtful' on Friday's injury report, but he appears to have made some progress over the weekend. Arians mentioned the Bucs will "see how sore he is" when asked about Brown's chances of returning in time to face the Chiefs on Sunday. A return to practice this week could be mandatory in order for Brown to suit up for the Super Bowl.

Absent again
Brown (knee) missed another practice Friday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: The Friday injury report lists Brown as 'doubtful,' but that's merely the estimate of what his status would be if the Bucs had a game this Sunday. The week off before the Super Bowl gives Brown some extra time to recover from his knee injury, as he's trying to get back on the field after missing the NFC Championship Game.

Not spotted at Friday's practice
Brown (knee) wasn't seen at the portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It appears to be the third straight day of no practice for the veteran wideout, which coach Bruce Arians indicated was the expectation for this week. A return to the field at some point next week would go a long way toward improving Brown's outlook for the Super Bowl.

Brown (knee) isn't practicing Thursday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Non-participant in practice
Brown (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
Analysis: As expected, Brown wouldn't have practiced if the Bucs had held a session. He's expected to remain a spectator in practices Thursday and Friday, but the Buccaneers are hoping the wide receiver will be healthy enough to play Feb. 7 in Super Bowl LV versus the Chiefs. If he's unable to go, Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson would be in line for additional targets behind starters Mike Evans (knee) and Chris Godwin (elbow).

Unlikely to practice this week
Coach Bruce Arians said Wednesday that he doesn't expect Brown (knee) to practice this week, NFL.com reports.
Analysis: The Bucs still plan on Brown returning for the Super Bowl LV matchup with the Chiefs on Feb. 7 after he missed the NFC Championship Game victory over the Packers. He's expected to get back on the practice field next week, and if all goes well, Brown would unseat Scotty Miller as the team's No. 3 wideout in the Super Bowl.

Should be ready for Super Bowl
The Buccaneers expect Brown (knee) to be ready for the Super Bowl, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Brown was held out of practice all last week and ruled out for the NFC Championship Game. He'll now have two weeks to get healthy before the Bucs face the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, with Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson the options to fill in at wide receiver if Brown can't play.

Won't face Packers
Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship Game at Green Bay, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Coach Bruce Arians indicated Thursday that the veteran wideout was expected to be a game-time decision, but he hadn't progressed as the team hoped when evaluated Friday morning, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Brown won't travel with the team, and the Buccaneers will need to advance to the Super Bowl for him to have a chance of seeing the field again this season. Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson should see increased opportunities for the Buccaneers against the Packers.

Game-time decision
Brown (knee) didn't practice Thursday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Coach Bruce Arians noted that Brown doesn't have to practice this week in order to play Sunday against the Packers and will be a game-time decision for the NFC Championship Game, which kicks off at 3:05 ET. With that in mind, Brown figures to be officially listed as questionable upon the release of the Buccaneers' Friday injury report.

No practice activity Wednesday
The Buccaneers listed Brown (knee) as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Analysis: Head coach Bruce Arians labeled Brown as day-to-day after an MRI revealed no major damage to his knee, but the wideout will likely need to practice in some fashion to play in Sunday's NFC Championship Game in Green Bay. The Buccaneers have thus far been unwilling to make a prediction on Brown's status for that game, with Arians relaying to Jenna Laine of ESPN.com on Wednesday that "it's too early to tell" if the receiver will play. Added context on Brown's status will arrive no later than…read more

Not seen at practice
Brown (knee) wasn't participating during the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Brown injured his knee in Sunday's divisional-round win over the Buccaneers and had an MRI on Monday. The Buccaneers reportedly consider him day-to-day, hoping he'll be available for the NFC Championship Game in Green Bay this weekend. It's possible the wideout could play without practicing, but it would still be nice to see some level of participation by the end of the week.

Deemed day-to-day
Browns (knee) is considered day-to-day after undergoing an MRI, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The wideout avoided a serious injury, but he could still face a challenge to be ready in time for the NFC Championship Game on Sunday. Brown played only 40 percent of offensive snaps in a win over New Orleans in the divisional round, catching one of three targets for 10 yards. If Brown isn't available Sunday, the Bucs can install Tyler Johnson and/or Scotty Miller as the No. 3 receiver.

Getting MRI on knee
Brown (knee) is undergoing an MRI to diagnose the nature and severity of his injury Monday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Brown appeared to tweak his knee during the second half of Sunday's NFC divisional-round win over the Saints, in which he hauled in one of three targets for 10 yards. The 32-year-old veteran had numerous stints on the sideline during the second half, but he never was officially ruled out for the game, which could bode well for his health. If his status does end up impacted for this weekend's NFC Championship Game at chilly Lambeau Field, Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson will stand to inherit…read more

May be dealing with knee issue
Brown secured one of three targets for 10 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-20 divisional-round win over the Saints on Sunday. Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports Brown appeared to be dealing with a knee injury in the second half.
Analysis: The veteran speedster's sparse line is largely explained by his physical issues, which appeared to surface just before halftime. Brown was seen talking to Tom Brady walking off the field at halftime on the FOX broadcast about what was presumed to be the injury, and he spent large portions of the second half on the sideline. The coming days leading up to next Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Packers will naturally shed more light on Brown's chances of suiting up for that contest, but…read more

Makes impact on two catches
Brown brought in two of three targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 31-23 wild-card win over Washington on Saturday night. He also rushed once for 22 yards.
Analysis: With Mike Evans (knee) active and filling his usual No. 1 role, Brown saw a lot less of Tom Brady's attention than in Week 17 against the Falcons. The veteran wideout still made his presence felt, however, recording a 36-yard touchdown grab late in the first quarter to extend the Buccaneers' lead to 9-0 at the time. Despite logging his fewest targets since Week 12, Brown could well be right back to a larger role in next weekend's divisional-round matchup against either the Saints or Rams.

Turns in vintage performance
Brown secured 11 of 14 targets for 138 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 44-27 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Flashing the type of speed and sure hands that made him one of the NFL's elite pass catchers for multiple seasons in Pittsburgh, Brown put together season highs across the board while pacing the Buccaneers in receptions, receiving yardage and targets. Brown's two scores, his third and fourth over the last three contests, came from 25 and 30 yards out in the second and fourth quarter, respectively. With Mike Evans set to undergo an MRI on the knee he injured in the first quarter per Jenna Laine…read more

Second TD in as many weeks
Brown brought in four of six targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 47-7 win over the Lions on Saturday.
Analysis: While the veteran speedster didn't quite enjoy as prolific an afternoon as fellow wideouts Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, he was a part of Tom Brady's record-setting first half with an impressive 12-yard touchdown grab in very tight coverage late in the second quarter. After being kept out of the end zone in his first five games as a Buc, Brown has now notched scoring catches in back-to-back contests. He'll have one more chance to tune up for the postseason in a Week 17 divisional tilt versus the…read more

Finally scores as Buc
Brown brought in five of seven targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 31-27 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Brown appeared to be on his way to another so-so outing until hauling in a beautifully thrown 46-yard touchdown pass from Tom Brady with 6:19 remaining, which would turn out to be the difference in the game. The former Pro Bowler checked in second in receptions and receiving yards to Mike Evans on the afternoon while tying both Evans and Rob Gronkowski for the team lead in targets.

Team-high catch total in win
Brown brought in all five targets for 49 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-14 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Brown tied Mike Evans for the team lead in targets while setting the pace in receptions on a day when there were only 23 total targets to go around. The veteran multi-time Pro Bowler has delivered only modest production in what has mostly been a short-area role thus far in Tampa Bay, posting a 25-217-0 line on 34 targets through five games. Brown does continue to draw plenty of Brady's attention, however, giving him a fighting chance at generating better numbers in a favorable Week 15 matchup…read more

Season-low numbers in loss
Brown brought in two of three targets for 11 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-24 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. He also returned one punt for two yards.
Analysis: Brown had given fantasy managers reason for optimism with his ascending numbers over the previous two games, but Sunday brought season-low figures across the board. The speedy veteran was regularly passed over in the passing game in favor of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Rob Gronkowski despite Tom Brady putting the ball up a robust 41 times. Brown will look to further acclimate to coach Bruce Arians' offense during the upcoming bye week before reemerging for a Week 14 battle against the Vikings.

Leads team in receptions
Brown caught eight of 13 targets for 57 yards in Monday night's 27-24 loss to the Rams. He also rushed once for one yard.
Analysis: Brown flashed some chemistry with quarterback Tom Brady by connecting on a couple difficult passes over the course of Monday's contest. While that relationship helped Brown lead the Bucs in receptions, targets and yards, teammates Chris Godwin and Mike Evans both scored touchdowns. Additionally, Brown had a critical deep ball brush off his fingertips during the second half.

Brown hauled in seven of eight targets for 69 yards and lost three yards on his sole rush in the Buccaneers' 46-23 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Brown was exponentially more involved than during his Week 9 debut, pacing the Buccaneers in receptions while checking in second in targets. The veteran speedster and Tom Brady displayed excellent chemistry in their third career game together, lending credence to the notion the pair may just be scratching the surface. Brown will look to build on Sunday's encouraging effort in a Week 11 Monday night showdown against the Rams' tough secondary.

Analysis: Brown made his long-awaited return to pro football after getting himself exiled from the NFL and serving an eight-game suspension upon his reinstatement due to off-the-field issues. The 32-year-old didn't appear to lose a step during the extended layoff, running his signature option routes with crispness. While the stat line wasn't anything to write home about, the polarizing wideout was able to beat his free safety assignment deep for what would have been a long gain or potentially a touchdown…read more

Goes 'full speed' Wednesday
Brown, who was officially reinstated from his eight-game suspension Tuesday, practiced with the Buccaneers for the first time Wednesday and could play 10-to-35 snaps in his Week 9 debut against the Saints, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. "He was going full speed," coach Bruce Arians said. "Everyone else was walking and he was going full speed, and that's him, anyway. It was good. Guys were helping him. He's got a really good handle on what we're trying to get done formation-ally and everything."
Analysis: The Buccaneers conducted a walk-through session Wednesday at their indoor facility, and Brown apparently wasn't able to hold back his enthusiasm in what was his first practice with a team since September 2019 while he was a member of the Patriots. The extent of the 32-year-old's role in his 2020 debut will partly hinge on the status of Chris Godwin (finger), who is uncertain to play after undergoing surgery last week. Brown played 24 snaps in his Patriots debut against the Dolphins last season…read more

Coach Bruce Arians said Tuesday that he isn't sure how much Brown will play against the Saints, offering that a range of between 10 and 35 snaps is more reasonable than the 60-80 range.

Coach Bruce Arians isn't sure how much Brown (suspension) can expect to be on the field Sunday against the Saints, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports. "It could be 10 plays, it could be 35 plays," Arians said Tuesday.
Analysis: Brown has completed his eight-game suspension for violations of the personal conduct policy, but until he's removed from the reserve/suspended list, he won't officially be a part of the Buccaneers' active roster. Still, the move is slated to happen in the near future so Brown can get on the practice field Wednesday.

Draws interest from Seattle
The Seahawks are "positioned to make a push to sign" Brown (suspension) if he is reinstated by the NFL when eligible after Week 8, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The report notes that other teams are also pursuing the wideout, though the possibility remains that the league could still extend Brown's suspension beyond Week 8. If that doesn't happen, however, the talented wideout could return to play in the second half of the current NFL campaign. Should Brown link up with the Seahawks, his team context would be favorable, but for now, Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf are entrenched as the team's top wideouts.

Could have suspension extended
Brown's eight-game suspension could still be extended if the NFL obtains new evidence pertaining to violations of its personal conduct policy, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Brown has a Sept. 15 hearing for a civil suit based on a sexual assault accusation. The allegation has been public knowledge since last year, but it wasn't factored into Brown's eight-game suspension. It thus stands to reason that his ban could be extended if the civil suit brings about new information.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh believes Brown isn't eligible to sign with an NFL team at the moment, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Harbaugh was responding to media inquiries after Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson said he thought Brown would be a good fit in the Baltimore locker room. Brown's history of contentious relationships with teammates might seem to suggest otherwise, but the real issue is an ongoing investigation into a series of off-field incidents from the past year. Brown likely will be suspended once the NFL concludes its investigation.

Previous reports suggested the Buccaneers and Ravens weren't likely to sign Brown, but Seattle could be a fit. Garafolo believes the Seahawks aren't likely to sign Brown until the NFL completes its investigation into his series of off-field incidents.

Ravens and Seahawks may be interested
Per NFL Network's Michael Silver, the Seahawks and Ravens are reportedly having internal discussions about potentially adding Brown at some point down the road, NFL.com reports.
Analysis: For the time being, however, Brown, who was released by the Patriots last September, is under investigation by the NFL for his off-field conduct and could potentially face league discipline. With that in mind, Silver speculates that Brown may be facing a suspension of "about half a season."

Pleads no contest to charges
After pleading no contest to burglary and battery charges stemming from a January incident in Florida, Brown has been ordered to serve two years of probation and complete 100 hours of community service, Jeremy Bergman of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: Per ESPN's Cameron Wolfe, Brown has also been instructed to undergo a mandatory psychological evaluation and attend a 13-week anger management program as part of his plea.

Levied three charges

Not wanted in Tampa
Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians said Brown wouldn't be a fit with the team, ESPN.com's Jenna Laine reports.
Analysis: Tom Brady reportedly had interest in bringing Brown to his next NFL stop, but Arians was quick to shut down the rumors, noting that he knows the wide receiver (from their time together in Pittsburgh) and doesn't think he'd be a good fit in the Bucs' locker room. It isn't even clear that Brown will be allowed to play in the NFL in 2020, due to his recent track record of off-field problems, per Chris Cwik of Yahoo Sports. The 31-year-old wide receiver made one appearance for the Patriots in 2019.

Working out in New Orleans
Brown will work out for the Saints on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The four-time All-Pro has been a free agent since being released by the Patriots after Week 2 and has suggested -- among other things -- over the past three months that he's moved on from the NFL, but his meeting with the Saints suggests otherwise. Michael Thomas (hand) established the single-season reception record (145) in last week's win over the Titans, but the Saints haven't received much meaningful production from the rest of their wide-receiver group and may view Brown as a worthy…read more

Not likely to play again this year
Brown is unlikely to play again during the 2019 season, Adam Schefter reports.
Analysis: Brown dominated the headlines from Week 17 of last season through the first three weeks of the current campaign. Since that point, he's remained unemployed as he attempts to recoup guaranteed portions of his contracts from both the Raiders and Patriots. On top of that situation, he's facing allegations of sexual misconduct, for which he'll meet with the NFL on Thursday. If he inks another deal with a team before the end of the year, the league likely will place Brown on the commissioner's…read more
