Brown's receiving volume surged to career highs; run game improvement should boost TD upside.

Despite Cincinnati's run game being bottled up by Jacksonville's defense (0.56 adjusted yards before contact per attempt, 11.1% rushing success rate), Brown elevated his receiving role in Week 4 with a 64% route rate (up from 52% in Weeks 1-3), 30% targets per route run (up from 19%), and 21% target share (up from 11%), setting a career-high 11 receptions. OC Dan Pitcher called the run-game strategy 'unsustainable' after just 23 yards, suggesting Brown's targets should convert to touchdowns as the run game improves.
