Buffalo Bills wide receiver
John Brown was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Week 14 against the New York Jets. It's the second consecutive week in which Brown has earned a promotion prior to gameday. Last Thursday, he played 16 percent of snaps but finished without a target. Expect a similar role from the 32-year-old in Week 14.

The Buffalo Bills elevated wide receiver
John Brown from their practice squad to their active roster for the Thursday night game in Week 13 against the New England Patriots. This will be Brown's first game active in 2022 after spending the 2021 season with the Denver Broncos, Jacksonville Jaguars and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 32-year-old had a 1,000-yard season as recently as 2019 with the Bills, and he could see some offensive snaps on Thursday night with
Jamison Crowder,
Jake Kumerow and
Marquez Stevenson all on Injured Reserve. Even then, he'll be well off the fantasy radar behind the likes of
Stefon Diggs,
Gabriel Davis,
Isaiah McKenzie and rookie
Khalil Shakir.

The Buffalo Bills have decided to add extra depth to their roster. On Saturday, they signed wide receiver
John Brown to their practice squad. Bills fans should remember Brown from his two years with the organization. In 24 games, Brown hauled in 105 receptions, 1,518 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns through two seasons in Buffalo. The expectation is that he won't make as significant impact this time around. It appears Brown was added as extra depth, so he probably isn't someone worth stashing in fantasy formats. It's unlikely he makes much of an impact unless
Stefon Diggs or
Gabe Davis go down with an injury.

The Green Bay Packers tried out veteran free-agent wide receiver
John Brown on Wednesday. Brown spent time with four teams last year and finished with no catches on three targets in four games with the Denver Broncos, Jacksonville Jaguars and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 32-year-old would be a long shot to make Green Bay's final 53-man roster if he were to sign with the team, even though the Packers' receiver depth isn't great after
Davante Adams,
Marquez Valdes-Scantling and
Equanimeous St. Brown all left in free agency. Brown would be competing with the likes of
Amari Rodgers,
Juwann Winfree,
Malik Taylor and rookie
Romeo Doubs if he signs with Green Bay.
