Feb 20, 2025
Sticking with New England
The Patriots signed Brown (concussion) to a one-year, $1.3 million extension Thursday, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown, who would have been an exclusive-rights free agent this offseason, served as the Patriots' starting center in all 10 of his regular-season appearances with the team in 2024. He spent the team's final two games on IR due to a concussion, but Brown figures to be fully healthy for the start of offseason activities.

Ending season on injured reserve
The Patriots placed Brown (concussion) on injured reserve Saturday, Chris Mason of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown will miss the last two games of the regular season after being placed in the league's concussion protocol following the Patriots' Week 16 loss to the Colts. He started at center in all 10 games that he played in and will enter free agency in the offseason.
Jan 3, 2025
Sidelined for Week 18
Brown (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown sustained a concussion in the Patriots' Week 17 loss to the Chargers and was unable to clear the NFL's five-step protocol in time to suit up for the team's regular-season finale Sunday. With Brown sidelined in Week 18, Cole Strange is expected to shift over and start at center, while Layden Robinson will likely fill the void at left guard.

Downgraded to out for Saturday
Brown (concussion) was downgraded to out for Saturday's game against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Brown has started New England's last 10 contests at center, so this is a significant loss for the Patriots' undermanned offensive line. Brown's loss potentially opens the door for Cole Strange to start at center.
Dec 24, 2024
In concussion protocols
Brown (concussion) did not participate in Tuesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Brown played every single offensive snap during the Patriots' 24-21 loss to the Bills this past Sunday and wasn't diagnosed with a concussion until after the game. He'll have to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols in order to play against the Chargers on Sunday. If Brown isn't cleared, Cole Strange (knee) would be the next man up to start at center for New England.
Aug 7, 2023
Recovered from injury
Brown has recovered from a biceps injury that forced him to miss the 2022 campaign and is No. 2 at left guard on the team's depth chart, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown joined Cincinnati as an undrafted free agent out of Ole Miss in 2022. However, he tore his biceps during training camp and spent last season on IR. Now healthy, Brown is working to earn a depth role on the team's offensive line.
Aug 15, 2022
Goes onto IR
Cincinnati placed Brown (biceps) on its reserve/injured reserve list Monday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Unless he's able to work out an injury settlement with the Bengals, the move means Brown will be shut down for the entire 2022 season. As he works to fully recover from his injury, Cincy will lean more heavily on Trey Hill for depth at center.
