Estimated as full go for Wednesday
Brown (neck) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. Brown appeared to have sustained a head injury in the Bills' Week 15 win over the Lions, but Wednesday's estimated injury report clarified the issue to be with his neck. However, Brown was listed as a full participant Wednesday, signifying that he's already recovered from the injury. Expect the Northern Iowa product to serve as Buffalo's top right tackle in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Patriots.
Suffers head injury in win
Brown suffered a head injury in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions. Brown suffered the injury in the late moments of the contest and it'll be something to monitor ahead of the team's Week 16 matchup with the Patriots. If Brown was forced to miss any action, Ryan Van Demark would be a top candidate to replace him at right tackle.
Limited Wednesday
Brown (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. The Northern Iowa product was sidelined for the Bills' Week 12 win over the Chiefs due to an ankle injury, so Wednesday's limited session suggests he could return as soon as Sunday's matchup against the 49ers. Brown's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can suit up in Week 13.
Won't play vs. Kansas City
Brown (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Brown gave himself a chance to play in Week 11 after logging a limited practice session Friday. However, he will be sidelined Sunday due to an ankle injury, and Ryan Van Demark is the top candidate to start at right tackle in Brown's absence.
Questionable for Sunday
Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Brown upgraded to a limited session Friday after opening Buffalo's week of practice with consecutive DNPs, so it appears he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's matchup. However, if the Northern Iowa product is unable to play through his ankle injury in Week 11, expect Ryan Van Demark to serve as the Bills' top right tackle.
Not practicing Wednesday
Head coach Sean McDermott said Brown won't participate in Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports. Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports. Though Brown is sitting out practice to begin Week 11 prep, head McDermott said Wednesday that he's "hopeful" that the starting right tackle will be able to play Sunday versus the Chiefs, per Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News. If Brown were to log a full practice Thursday or Friday, he would probably avoid an injury designation for Sunday.
Inks extension with Buffalo
The Bills and Brown agreed to a four-year extension Friday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. The specifics of the 2021 third-round pick's deal have yet to be reported, but Brown is now under contract with the Bills through 2028. Brown started all 17 of Buffalo's regular-season games in 2023, and after Friday's extension, he's expected to continue anchoring the right side of the Bills' offensive line for years to come.
Had offseason shoulder surgery
Brown revealed Wednesday that he underwent offseason shoulder surgery but will be ready for the start of training camp next week, Ryan O'Halloran of The Buffalo News reports. Brown didn't miss a game in 2023, playing all 1,161 offensive snaps during the regular season. It was the first time the 26-year-old made it through a fully healthy campaign, though it's obvious he was playing a bit banged up. Brown is locked in atop the depth chart at right tackle for Buffalo.
