Brown's 3 catches for 48 yards on 6 targets marks another quiet outing post-injury.

Brown had another quiet day for the Patriots' top receiver, finishing with just three catches for 48 yards on six targets. He had a go-ball opportunity he could not finish as Maye dropped a dime in the bucket, but the defender forced Brown to play through contact on a play the three-time Pro Bowler should have made. Brown will get extra time off after returning from a high ankle sprain.
