The Kansas City Chiefs (4-3) will host the Washington Commanders (3-4) in Week 8. 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 8?
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 8?
Hollywood Brown scored last week, but under a yard per route is discouraging and it’s tough to find consistent looks for him in this offense with Rashee Rice stepping right back into the alpha earner role.
I’m selling to the highest bidder and not thinking twice about it.
I said two weeks ago that I’d move him for the Packers D/ST and you’ve lost out big time if you executed at the time of that suggestion.
I’d still do it.
Green Bay has a very reasonable schedule for the rest of the way, and that’s a starting spot whereas you’d really need to be in a tough spot to plug in Brown barring an injury around him.
Brown sits outside of my top 40 at the position this week, behind lesser talents like Troy Franklin and Darnell Mooney who are in great matchups.
