Fantasy Football Injury Update: A.J. Brown ankle injury, to miss several weeks?
New England Patriots star wide receiver A.J. Brown suffered a right ankle injury during Wednesday night’s season opener against the Seattle Seahawks.
Brown was injured early in the third quarter while attempting to catch a low pass from Drake Maye. Seahawks cornerback Nehemiah Pritchett came down on Brown’s ankle, causing it to twist awkwardly. Brown immediately grabbed his ankle and was helped to the medical tent before heading to the locker room for X-rays.
Brown was initially listed as questionable to return but was later ruled out for the remainder of the game. He finished his Patriots debut with three catches for 26 yards on four targets.
Dr. Jesse Morse of Injury Expertz breaks down the injury update on Brown.
