The Kansas City Chiefs will host the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Marquise Brown.
Is Marquise Brown Playing in Week 12?
Brown is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Chiefs’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Brown in Week 12?
Has he lost nickname rights?
Brown has gone five straight games with under five targets, an impressive feat given the high PROE of the Chiefs in the Andy Reid era. Since the return of Rashee Rice, Brown has been little more than useless, and he’s not even first in line of WRs that I think the Chiefs would want to break out of a slump (Xavier Worthy).
This is the type of player I’d cut for an upward-trending player like Luther Burden or a player with a QB change like Darnell Mooney.
