Marquise Brown Fantasy Stats

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown (personal) will not play in Sunday's divisional matchup with the Chargers. Brown did not participate in Wednesday's practice, logged a limited participation on Thursday, and was not spotted during Friday's media access portion. He has now been ruled out for non-injury personal reasons. Since a Week 1 surprise outing that saw him targeted 14 times with Rashee Rice suspended and Xavier Worthy injured early, Brown has been largely irrelevant in most fantasy formats. Since Rice's return from suspension in Week 7, Brown has topped 40 receiving yards only once, while averaging 1.7 receptions per game. An unrestricted free agent after this season, he still holds some dynasty value, but he no longer needs to be rostered for redraft playoffs.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown caught two passes for 20 yards and a touchdown in last week's 28-31 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite his modest stat line, Brown found the endzone to salvage his fantasy day. The veteran receiver has found pay dirt five times this season, meaning that Patrick Mahomes can trust him when the field shrinks. Brown will likely have to find the endzone again to be viable against Houston in Week 14. The Texans have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, meaning they are among the toughest matchups for the position. Brown is ranked WR60 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex play in Week 14.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown scored his fifth receiving touchdown of the year in the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Dallas Cowboys last Thursday, but it came on only two catches (two targets) and 20 yards. It seems like ages ago when Hollywood had 10 catches on 16 targets for 99 yards back in the season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The 28-year-old pass-catcher had at least five targets in the first five games of the year when Rashee Rice was suspended -- Xavier Worthy also missed two games with a shoulder injury during that stretch. Since Week 5, Brown has not been targeted more than four times in a game as he's been phased out of KC's offense. In the last seven games, he has 15 catches on 20 targets for 202 yards and four scores. In a part-time role for the Chiefs, we would recommend keeping Brown on your bench in deeper fantasy leagues against the Houston Texans and their top-ranked defense in Week 14 on Sunday Night Football.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown could be a sneaky flex play in a high-scoring Thanksgiving game against the Dallas Cowboys. Brown was not heavily involved in last week's win over the Colts, catching just one pass for 10 yards, but he could be more involved in a game with the highest total of the week. The Cowboys offense is fourth in points per game and first in yards per game this season, meaning that the passing game should be busy on Thursday. Brown has found the endzone for times this season and has been the WR2 on the team at various times, so his usage can vary from game to game. Brown will also benefit from a Cowboys defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR66 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him more of a desperation flex option this week.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will take on the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12. Brown had a serviceable performance in Week 11, catching four passes for 40 yards against the Denver Broncos. While he did not have a big game, Brown finished third on the team in receiving yards against a tough opponent. Fellow wide receiver Xavier Worthy got a full practice in on Friday but is officially listed as questionable, which could boost Brown's fantasy value. Brown could fill the field-stretching role while Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce compete for the short and intermediate targets against Indianapolis. The Colts defense is an advantageous matchup, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is currently ranked WR64 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex candidate, but that ranking would climb dramatically if Worthy is ruled out.

After failing to reach 50 receiving yards in any game between Week 2 and Week 8, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown hauled in two catches for 73 yards on four targets in his team's Week 9 loss to the Buffalo Bills. However, with Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy ahead of him on the Chiefs' wide receiver depth chart, Brown's upside coming out of Kansas City's Week 10 bye is limited. He has not earned more than four targets in any game since Rice returned from the suspension that sidelined him for the first six games of 2025. Brown's big-play ability allows him to maintain some level of fantasy relevance. Still, he will be difficult to trust on a week-to-week basis as long as Kansas City's top pass-game targets can stay on the field. The Chiefs have a tough matchup in Week 11 against the Denver Broncos, making Brown a player for fantasy managers to avoid.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown has recorded 32 catches for 316 yards and four touchdowns on 49 targets across his first eight games of 2025. However, Brown has seen his role in the offense shrink in recent weeks. After earning at least five targets in each of his first five games of the season, Brown has failed to reach the five-target mark in each of his last three. He was held without a catch on just one target in his most recent outing in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders. With Chiefs wideouts Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy back from the suspension and injury that limited their participation early in the season, Brown appears likely to remain in a marginalized role. Kansas City will play the Buffalo Bills in Week 9 in a matchup that has definite shootout potential. Still, Brown is unlikely to provide fantasy-relevant production if he fails to crack 40% of the team's offensive snaps, a number he hasn't reached since Week 6. Brown profiles as a desperation deep-league flex option in Week 9 against Buffalo.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) was absent from practice on Wednesday. Brown failed to haul in his lone target on Monday night against the Commanders and has struggled to remain fantasy relevant with the return of Rashee Rice. In the two games since Rice returned, Brown has seen a total of five targets, resulting in two catches for 14 yards and a touchdown. If Brown continues to miss time this week, fantasy owners should be comfortable benching the big-play receiver ahead of a Week 9 matchup with the Buffalo Bills.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will take on the Washington Commanders in Week 8. After an explosive 10-catch performance in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Brown has caught more than four passes just once. The veteran receiver only caught two passes for 14 yards in Week 7, but he did manage to find the endzone. Brown has recently been a scoring threat for the Chiefs, finding paydirt in three of the last four games. Those touchdowns are the only things keeping Brown's fantasy value afloat since he'll be behind Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, and Travis Kelce in the pecking order moving forward. He'll look to find the endzone this week against the Commanders, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR47 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making a desperation flex play even with six teams on bye this week.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 7. Brown was listed on the injury report with an Achilles injury, but practiced fully all week and does not have an injury designation heading into the weekend. The 28-year-old didn't light the world on fire in Week 6, catching four passes for 45 yards, but he did manage to find the endzone twice in the matchup. It will be tougher sledding for Brown this week against the Raiders, but not due to the matchup. The Raiders have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, but Brown will have increased target competition with the return of Rashee Rice. Rice should immediately return to being the top target earner for Kansas City, leaving less volume for Brown. Brown is ranked WR46 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex option in Week 7.
