Patriots' A.J. Brown: Won't play against Miami
Brown (knee/ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of ESPN and NFL Network reports.
Brown entered the weekend with the questionable tag despite being held out of practice Friday, and it looks like the knee injury that flared up Wednesday is severe enough for the veteran wide receiver to miss Sunday's AFC East tilt. With Brown sidelined, the Patriots' pass-catching group will be led by DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and tight end Hunter Henry. Brown's next opportunity to play is Week 9 against the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Listed as questionable for Week 8
Brown (ankle/knee) is questionable for Sunday's game at Miami, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Patriots coach Mike Vrabel deemed Brown questionable after Friday's practice, in which the wideout didn't participate. Vrabel told reporters that Brown's knee flared up during Wednesday's practice and prevented him from finishing the session, per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald. Brown then missed practice Thursday and Friday, putting his availability in serious doubt ahead of a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff at Miami on Sunday.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Not present at Friday's practice
Brown (ankle/knee) was not spotted at Friday's practice, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Brown was limited Wednesday and missed practice Thursday, with reports confirming a flare-up in his knee. He's managed chronic/degenerative knee problems throughout his career, typically managing to play even when the issue flares up. That said, the back-to-back absences from practice suggest Brown is in danger of missing Sunday's game at Miami, potentially leaving DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams as New England's top three WRs.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Confirmed as non-participant Thursday
Brown (ankle/knee) was officially listed as a non-participant at Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Thursday's injury report confirms earlier reporting from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that Brown isn't practicing Thursday. According to Rapoport, Brown recently had a knee issue flare up, which has the wide receiver's status for Sunday's game against the Dolphins in doubt. Brown has six catches for 75 yards on 16 targets in two games since returning from a four-game absence due to an ankle injury.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Status against Dolphins in doubt
Brown (knee/ankle) is sidelined Thursday by a knee issue that flared up, and the wide receiver's status for Sunday against the Dolphins is up in the air, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Brown is contending with a new knee injury in addition to the ankle injury through which he has played the last two weeks after missing the previous four. The wideout's fantasy managers should start forming contingency plans in case he sits out Sunday against the Dolphins, though Brown could change the narrative by returning to practice Friday.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Not seen at Thursday's practice
Brown (ankle/knee) was not present during the media-viewing portion of Thursday's practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Brown looks to be trending in the wrong direction after being listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice. He has caught just six of 16 targets for 75 yards in two games since returning from a stint on IR due to an ankle injury. Brown's activity level Friday could be pivotal for his availability Sunday against the Dolphins.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Limited by knee, ankle Wednesday
Brown was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to knee and ankle injuries.
The Patriots are remaining cautious with Brown, who is apparently nursing a knee issue in addition to getting continued maintenance for the high-ankle sprain that kept him out for four games. Brown was limited in two practices ahead of a Thursday night game against the Bears but still played 92 percent of the offensive snaps in the 30-24 loss. A similar rep-management plan could be in place for Brown going into Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Slight improvement in Week 7 loss
Brown brought in three of six targets for 48 yards in the Patriots' 30-24 loss to the Bears on Thursday.
Brown entered the night looking to put a fairly forgettable Week 6 return from injury behind him, but the veteran wideout could only slightly improve his numbers in the high-scoring loss. He was fairly quiet until the second half, when he had 16- and 14-yard grabs. Brown did finish second in targets on the night for New England, but Drake Maye focused most on tight end Hunter Henry and running back Rhamondre Stevenson, who saw a combined 12 targets. With Romeo Doubs (IR, shoulder) out for at least three more games, Brown will have a chance to see elevated volume in a Week 8 road matchup against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 1.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Good to go for Thursday Night Football
Brown (ankle) does not carry an injury designation going into Thursday's game against the Bears.
Brown turned in a full practice Wednesday, and that was enough to take him off the injury report going into the Week 7 primetime matchup with Chicago. He returned from a four-game absence in Week 6 and played 76 percent of the offensive snaps against the Jets, recording three catches for 27 yards on 10 targets. Brown and the Patriots will face a Bears defense that allows 9.8 yards per target to opposing receivers.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Remains listed as limited Tuesday
Brown (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report.
Brown returned from a four-game absence this past Sunday against the Jets, and with no reported setbacks, his limited participation Monday and Tuesday is likely maintenance-related. Wednesday's injury report should clarify whether the Patriots' top WR will be fully cleared for Week 7 action.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: On practice field Tuesday
Brown (ankle) was spotted on the practice field Tuesday, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
Brown, who returned from a four-game absence this past Sunday against the Jets, was listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report. It remains to be seen how the Patriots list his Tuesday participation level, but at this stage there's no reason to believe that the wideout's availability for Thursday night's game against the Bears is in any danger.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Limited on Monday's practice estimate
Brown (ankle) was listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report.
In his return from a four-game absence Sunday against the Jets, Brown was targeted 10 times but hauled in only three of them for 27 yards. It appears he's still bothered by his previous right ankle sprain, as evidenced by a capped walkthrough Monday, but he still has two more chances to get back to full this week before potentially being tagged with a designation for Thursday's contest at Chicago.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Inefficient with 10 targets in return
Brown secured three of 10 targets for 27 yards in the Patriots' 26-19 win over the Jets on Sunday and fumbled once but recovered.
Brown's return from a four-game absence due to an ankle injury largely fell flat, but it could have been a lot more productive had it not been for his clear drop on a nicely thrown deep pass from Drake Maye early in the second quarter. Brown has already seen 23 targets from Maye over the two games the star receiver has suited for, so the chemistry is bound to continue to blossom once they finally have an uninterrupted stretch of games to work together. Brown won't have to wait long to try and atone, however, as the Patriots are back in action Thursday night on the road against the Bears.
