Chase Brown has not been amazing this year... From week four onward, every single one of those running backs average at least 15 PPR points per game.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Brown's comps project 15+ PPR/game from week 4; usage elite despite slow start.

Brown is currently a mid-range low-end RB2 in fantasy but his peripherals are strong: he ranks third in rush share and eighth in route share among running backs. Statistical comps using snap share, route share, target share, and rush share through three games show his top comparables are 2018 David Johnson, 2022 Joe Mixon, and 2017 Melvin Gordon, who averaged 16.2, 18.2, and 18.0 PPR points per game from week four onward. When layering in fantasy production, additional comps include 2021 David Montgomery, 2025 Josh Jacobs, and 2023 Josh Jacobs—all averaging at least 15 PPR points per game from week four onward. JJ Zachariason notes the Bengals faced bottom-12 matchups (Bucks, Texans, Steelers) to start the season and Cincinnati has scored 86% of touchdowns through the air, suggesting volume is present and scoring should follow.
