Jarvis Brownlee Jr. Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Dolphins vs Jets game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Nov 30, 2025
Not suiting up Sunday
Brownlee (hip) is inactive for Sunday's Week 13 matchup versus the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
This became the likely scenario when Brownlee was downgraded from questionable to doubtful Saturday. The second-year cornerback popped up on the injury report as a DNP with a hip issue Friday, though it's unclear when or how he picked up the injury. Qwan'tez Stiggers and/or Isaiah Oliver may see an increased role in Brownlee's absence Sunday.

Downgrades to doubtful
Brownlee (hip) has been downgraded and is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
The second-year pro from Louisville was added to the Jets' injury report Friday due to a hip issue, and it now appears he's trending toward not playing in Sunday's contest. If Brownlee is sidelined as expected in Week 13, Ja'Sir Taylor and Qwan'tez Stiggers will likely have expanded roles in New York's secondary.

Questionable for Week 13
Brownlee (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was added to the injury report Friday, logging a DNP, so it sounds like his status could come down to the wire Sunday. Acquired from the Titans in September, Brownlee's snap rate plummeted in Week 12 against Baltimore, and it's unclear if it had anything to do with this hip injury.

Sees snap count dwindle Week 12
Brownlee posted five tackles (three solo) during the Jets' 23-10 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee logged at least five tackles for the fifth time in six games during Sunday's loss. However, the second-year corner played just 23 of 63 defensive snaps (36.5 percent), his lowest since Week 5 against the Cowboys when he played just seven defensive snaps. It's unclear whether Brownlee's workload will change when the Jets host the Falcons this Sunday.
Nov 15, 2025
Co-leading tackler in loss
Brownlee tallied eight total tackles (six solo) in Thursday night's 27-14 loss to the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee tied Quincy Williams for the most solo tackles on the Jets' defense in Thursday's divisional loss. Brownlee, a second-year pro from Louisville, has appeared in six games since being traded from the Titans to the Jets in late September, recording 31 total tackles, two passes defended and one forced fumble during that span. He's expected to remain one of New York's top defensive playmakers in the Week 12 matchup against the Ravens.
Nov 10, 2025
Four tackles in win
Brownlee recorded four total tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 27-20 victory over Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee played 57 defensive snaps in the contest, his highest total since being traded from the Titans to New York in late September. He was able to secure at least four stops for the fourth straight game. The cornerback has now registered 40 total tackles (26 solo), three passes defensed and a forced fumble over seven contests with the Titans and Jets this season.
Oct 30, 2025
Breaks up two passes in win
Brownlee recorded four solo tackles and two pass breakups in Sunday's 39-38 win over the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback has played on 68 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the last three games for the Jets. Brownlee was traded to the team in September by Tennessee, and he has slowly but surely worked his way up to a starting role at nickel corner. With Michael Carter off to Philadelphia, Brownlee's spot should be secure.
Oct 1, 2025
Full practice Wednesday
Brownlee logged a full practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was unable to suit up in Week 4 after being traded to the Jets from Tennessee. He appears ready to make his debut in a Week 5 matchup against Dallas, and he could immediately step into a significant role if Michael Carter (concussion) can't suit up.
Sep 27, 2025
Won't play Monday
Brownlee (ankle) has been ruled out for the Jets' matchup versus Miami on Monday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was traded to the Jets from Tennessee on Tuesday but will now have to wait at least another week to make his debut with the team. The 2024 fifth-round pick racked up 17 tackles (11 solo) and one pass deflection across the first two games of the season while serving as one of the Titans' starting cornerbacks. Once healthy, he will likely serve as a rotational defender on his new team.
Sep 25, 2025
Doesn't practice Thursday
Brownlee (ankle) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee will have to wait at least one more day before participating in practice with his new team. The 2024 fifth-rounder was traded by the Titans to the Jets on Tuesday, and he is expected to serve in a rotational role in the Jets' secondary. Brownlee will have two more opportunities to practice ahead of Monday's AFC East tilt against the Dolphins.
Sep 23, 2025
Traded to Gang Green
The Titans traded Brownlee (ankle) to the Jets on Tuesday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
ANALYSIS
The move will also include late round pick swaps for the 2026 NFL Draft. Brownlee was the Titans' starting corner in each of the first two games of the season and logged 17 tackles (11 solo) and one pass defense. He suffered an ankle injury during the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Rams, and given his injury and the time it takes to acclimate to a new defense, he's facing an uphill battle to play in Monday's AFC East clash against the Dolphins. When healthy, the 2024 fifth-rounder will serve in a rotational role at outside corner behind Brandon Stephens and Sauce Gardner (head).
Sep 21, 2025
Not playing vs. Indianapolis
Brownlee (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice before not participating in Friday's session due to an ankle injury. The injury is severe enough for him to not suit up Sunday, and his next chance to play is Week 4 against the Texans on Sunday, Sept. 28. Darrell Baker and Jalyn Armour-Davis are the top candidates to see an expanded role at outside corner opposite L'Jarius Sneed due to Brownlee's injury.
Sep 19, 2025
Questionable for Colts matchup
Brownlee (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee popped up on the injury report Thursday and was unable to practice Friday. While that's not a positive trend, he'll likely see how he feels in warmups Sunday before his status becomes official.
Sep 9, 2025
Piles up nine tackles in loss
Brownlee recorded nine tackles (six solo) in the Titans' loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee started at outside cornerback opposite L'Jarius Sneed and played 75 of 76 defensive snaps, tying Cody Barton for the team lead in tackles. Brownlee held his own in coverage and played strong run defense and figures to hold down one of the starting cornerback spots this season after Tennessee did little to address the position in the offseason.
Feb 6, 2025
Earns starting gig as rookie
Brownlee made 75 tackles (46 solo) across 17 regular-season games with the Titans in 2024. He also had nine passes defensed, including one interception, plus one fumble recovery.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee claimed essentially an every-down role in the slot from Week 6 on, after the Titans' bye. The 2024 fifth-round pick isn't necessarily guaranteed to reprise a starting role during the 2025 campaign if Tennessee adds at the position, but he enters the offseason with an opportunity to solidify his standing.
Dec 10, 2024
Racks up nine tackles
Brownlee recorded nine tackles (six solo) during the Titans' loss Sunday versus Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was questionable heading into Sunday's matchup due to a hip injury but ended up recording a season-high nine tackles. With Chidobe Awuzie playing in his first game since Week 3, Brownlee was moved over to the slot where he will likely continue to play for the remainder of the campaign.
Dec 8, 2024
Gets green light
Brownlee (hip) is good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee was unable to practice Friday after a limited workload the previous day, which indicated he was trending in the wrong direction. However, it looks like he was able to expedite his recovery and is now set to take on his usual workload at cornerback against Jacksonville.
Dec 6, 2024
Could play Sunday
Brownlee (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee appears to be trending in the wrong direction ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup, as he popped up on the Titans' injury report as a limited practice participant Thursday before downgrading to no participation Friday. If the rookie cornerback from Louisville can't play through his hip injury in Week 14, Tre Avery will likely see increased work with Tennessee's first-team secondary.
Dec 5, 2024
Working through hip injury
Brownlee (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee's hip injury may be new since he was able to log a full practice Wednesday. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but if he's able to practice Friday, then Brownlee should have no trouble playing Sunday against Jacksonville. The rookie corner has logged 35 tackles (22 solo) and eight pass defenses (including one interception) in the eight regular-season games since the Titans' Week 5 bye.
Nov 25, 2024
Nabs first pickoff in Week 12 win
Brownlee tallied four tackles (three solo) and intercepted a pass Sunday in a 32-27 victory versus the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee's biggest play was an interception of C.J. Stroud with less than a minute remaining in the second quarter that set up a Titans field goal just before halftime. It was the first interception of Brownlee's NFL career, and his three total pass defenses in the contest marked a season high. Chidobe Awuzie hasn't played since Week 3 due to a groin injury, and Brownlee has stepped in as a starter since then, totaling 36 tackles over his past eight games.
Oct 27, 2024
Good to go vs. Detroit
Brownlee (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee popped up on Friday's injury report due to an ankle injury, which earned him the questionable tag. The injury isn't serious enough to keep the rookie fifth-rounder off the field Sunday, and that's good news for the Titans as L'Jarius Sneed (quadriceps) is inactive for the contest. Brownlee took over the starting corner job after Chidobe Awuzie (groin) was placed on injured reserve in late September. Brownlee has played 100 percent of the Titans' defensive snaps over the past two games and has logged eight tackles (seven solo) and four passes defended over that span.
Oct 22, 2024
New career-high tackle total
Brownlee recorded six tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's 34-10 loss at Buffalo.
ANALYSIS
Brownlee played in a starting role for his third straight game in Week 7 with Chidobe Awuzie (groin) on injured reserve, and in addition to his six tackles, he broke up multiple passes for the second straight week. His style of play won't always translate to IDP relevance, but he's making a case for more real-life snaps as the season carries on.
