A dynamic debut in both the regular season and playoffs bookended a rollercoaster season for the rookie from Oklahoma. An offseason foot injury that lingered on into the year, Brown was never quite able to duplicate his breath taking 4-147-2 NFL debut in Week 1. A strong 8-82 line in Week 2 was followed-up with boom and bust weeks until a 7-126 line in the playoff loss to the Titans.
To say his rookie season was up and down was an understatement. During the most important part of the fantasy season (Weeks 13-16) Brown had three games where he COMBINED for 5 yards. While some inconsistency was expected from a route-limited rookie receiver coming off a foot injury, that was a painful pill to swallow.
A healthy off-season as the team's clear WR1 should go a long way to improving Brown's second year numbers, as he becomes an integral part of the evolution of this passing offense. A large part of the reason the Titans were able to throttle the Ravens in the playoffs was the lack of Jackson's ability to connect with his receivers consistently. WIth Mark Andrews bottled up, the passing game sputtered. An extension of his route tree, combined with his game-breaking speed and quickness, Brown is set up for a second-year surge. The rare WR3 with week winning potential, Brown is a player I want to own as many shares of as possible in standard leagues. With a slight uptick in passing attempts and continued health, Brown has a chance to catch 70 passes. This coaching staff has shown that they are willing to devise schemes to best match their players, and I see Brown having the type of talent and opportunity that could greatly outpace his current draft slot.

 Marquise Brown, Miles Boykin land on COVID-19 list
Ravens down two receivers
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Dec 16, 4:45 pm
|  | The Ravens place WRs Marquise Brown, Miles Boykin and James Proche on Reserve/COVID-19 list. Per sources, the Ravens had a positive COVID-19 test w/a coach. As of now, the three guys put on the Reserve/COVID-19 List are close contacts. The contact came on Monday. So there still would be enough time for them to play Sunday. But they have to keep testing negative. (Jeff Zrebiec on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: For now, Willie Snead, Devin Duvernay and Dez Bryant are the top three receivers on the depth chart. We'll see if Marquise and Boykin can be cleared in time for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
