Patriots' A.J. Brown: Thursday's DNP confirmed
Brown (ankle/knee) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Thursday's injury report confirms Brown's absence after he wasn't spotted earlier in the day. Brown has missed the team's first two practices leading up to Sunday's game against the Packers, suggesting he's fighting an uphill battle in his effort to avoid missing a second consecutive game. He has dressed for only three of New England's first eight games. DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism, Kyle Williams and possibly Mack Hollins (calf) would lead the Patriots' wide receiver room Sunday if Brown sits again.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Absent again Thursday
Brown (ankle/knee) isn't present for the portion of Thursday's practice open to media viewing, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Brown appears set for a second straight missed practice after sitting out Wednesday's session on the heels of his absence during New England's Week 8 win over Miami. He'll have one more chance to practice Friday and will likely have to participate in some capacity to avoid being ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Set to miss Wednesday's practice
Brown (ankle/knee) won't practice Wednesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Brown was sidelined for New England's Week 8 win over Miami, and with another 'DNP' - his third straight -- on tap, the wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Packers is cloudy. On the plus side for the Patriots, Mack Hollins (calf) could return from IR this weekend to bolster a WR corps that also includes DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams.

Patriots' A.J. Brown: Practice participation this week TBD
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.

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.
