When Is A.J. Brown Coming Back? Fantasy Football Injury Return Update

A.J. Brown Injury Update for Fantasy Football

A.J. Brown Fantasy Football Outlook

Brown will immediately be a must-start when he returns to action. Even if he's not 100% healthy, he should have WR1 upside. He has produced WR1 numbers in every game that he plays in.

While he's out, DeVonta Smith will continue to be the primary target for the Eagles, and wideout Jahan Dotson should give appeal in deeper leagues as he becomes the second option in the receiving game for quarterback Jalen Hurts.

Brown fantasy managers will have to try to survive in his absence, and hopefully, he will only be sidelined for a short amount of time. When he returns, he should immediately be inserted into your fantasy lineups.
