When asked whether Brown (ankle/knee) might practice at some point this week, coach Mike Vrabel said Monday "we'll see," Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Brown was inactive for Sunday's 24-19 win over the Dolphins, and Vrabel's comment Monday implies that the wideout's status for this weekend's game against the Packers is uncertain at this stage. In Brown's absence versus Miami, DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams paced the Patriots' Week 8 WR corps.
