Brown trails Lance in Saints WR3 competition but situation could shift.

With Jordyn Tyson and Mason Tipton out for at least the first four games, Brown is in contention for the Saints' WR3 job alongside rookie Bryce Lance. Both ran nearly every route in the first half of New Orleans' final preseason game. However, Lance bested Brown in PPF receiving grade, yards per route run, and targets per route run throughout the preseason, putting Brown behind Lance for the WR3 role. The situation could evolve rapidly in the first month of the season.
