Brown (ankle) was a full participant at practice Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Brown has logged a pair of full practices to open the week after missing the team's first two games of the 2025 season with an ankle injury. The 26-year-old could draw a start at cornerback against Houston on Sunday with Jarrian Jones (back) banged up ahead of Week 3.

Jaguars' Montaric Brown: Doubtful to play at Cincinnati
Rotowire
Brown (ankle) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.
Brown was limited at practice all week as he continues to tend to an ankle injury he suffered during training camp, and it appears unlikely he'll play in Week 2. If he truly can't go, Travis Hunter could see more work at cornerback Sunday than he might otherwise.

Jaguars' Montaric Brown: Logs limited practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Brown missed all of training camp and the Jaguars' regular-season opener against the Panthers this past Sunday due to an ankle injury that he suffered in late July. However, his ability to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday is a sign that he is progressing in his recovery. Brown will have two more chances this week to log a full practice and avoid an injury tag heading into the Jaguars' Week 2 clash against the Bengals in Cincinnati on Sunday.

Jaguars' Montaric Brown: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Brown (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Brown's absence Sunday comes as no surprise after he didn't practice all week due to an ankle issue. The 26-year-old served as one of Jacksonville's top outside cornerbacks in 2024, recording 75 total tackle and eight passes defended, including one interception, over 17 games. While Brown is sidelined, 2025 second-overall pick Travis Hunter is expected to see increased reps in the Jaguars' secondary.

Brown recorded 75 tackles (55 solo) across 17 regular-season appearances with the Jaguars in 2024. He also had eight passes defensed and one interception.
Brown more than doubled his production totals from 2023, and he played 90-plus percent of Jacksonville's defensive snaps in seven of the 17 contests he appeared in. The 2022 seventh-round pick will work to take another step forward heading into the final year of his rookie deal with the Jaguars.

Jaguars' Montaric Brown: Jags' leading tackler in loss
Rotowire
Brown recorded 11 tackles (all solo) during Sunday's 18-13 loss versus the Browns.
Brown led Jacksonville's corners in snaps in Week 2, and he reached the double-digit mark in tackles in a game for the first time in his career. He might not get so many opportunities in Week 3 at Buffalo though, so he's still not on the IDP radar in most formats.

Montaric Brown: Nabbed by Jags in seventh round
Rotowire
The Jaguars selected Brown in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 222nd overall.
Brown was the first pick of the seventh round. An Arkansas product, Brown checks in at 6-foot with 4.55 speed. He was productive in the Razorbacks secondary with 11 pass breakups and five picks as a fifth-year senior. Brown lacks standout tools but he's experienced and battle-tested from his days in the SEC and has a chance to make the roster.
