Brown has failed to hit the 50-yard rushing mark since Week 3 despite averaging a solid 18.3 touches per game (RB13). Among the 18 players with at least 110 touches this season, he is the only one averaging under 4.0 yards per touch, with a 7.3% explosive run rate well below the 9.3% league average. He has handled just two of the team's four carries inside the 5-yard line, opening the door for Samaje Perine. With 54% of his fantasy production generated through the air, Brown is the second-most receiving-dependent running back in the NFL behind only Ashton Jeanty. Against the Titans, who have faced the second-fewest running back targets per game (4.1) and given up the fifth-fewest catches to the position, Brown presents an uninspiring low-floor RB2.

Joe Mixon failed a physical with the Seahawks after agreeing to terms, raising serious concerns about his foot injury. He missed the entire 2023 season with this foot injury and still cannot pass a physical after a year and a half off. At age 30, teams may be hesitant to bring him in for workouts given the severity and duration of the injury. His return timeline is uncertain and could be weeks, months, or potentially next year.
