Noah Brown: Everything you need to know

The Commanders placed Brown (rib) on injured reserve Tuesday. Brown had previously missed 10 straight games earlier this season while he was on IR due to groin and knee issues, but he was cleared to return to action in Week 14. He lasted just two games before succumbing to another injury, as the Commanders are opting to shut him down for good after he exited Sunday's 29-21 win over the Giants due to a rib issue. The 29-year-old wideout will wrap up his second season in Washington with a 5-83-0 receiving line on 10 targets over just four appearances.

Brown won't return to Sunday's game at the Giants due to a rib injury. When Brown exited in the first half, the Commanders listed him with a back issue, which since has been reclassified to a different health concern. With Brown out for the rest of Week 15, Treylon Burks and Jaylin Lane will be the tertiary wide receivers in Washington's offense behind top options Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel.

Brown was forced out of Sunday's game against the Giants with a back injury. Prior to his exit, Brown caught his only target for 28 yards. In his absence, Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel, Treylon Burks and Jaylin Lane are available to handle the Commanders' WR duties.
