Jayce Brown News, Rumors, Updates - Kansas State Wildcats

Five targets in losing effort Brown logged three receptions (on five targets) for 29 yards during Saturday's 24-21 defeat to Army.

Impact Brown has at least five targets in all three games this year. With Kansas State struggling on the defensive end, it's likely that Brown has a career year in 2025. It's worth noting that Jaron Tibbs is also a dangerous weapon in this offense as he has recorded touchdowns in back-to-back games. Look for both Brown and Tibbs to be busy against Arizona on Friday Night.

Big performance in comeback win Brown hauled in 12 of 16 targets for 109 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-35 victory against North Dakota.

Impact Brown is clearly QB Avery Johnson's favorite target as his 16 targets outpaced the rest of the Wildcats by quite a bit. Teammates Jaron Tibbs and Jerand Bradley both saw seven targets a piece. Brown's 12 catches were the most by a Wildcat since Tyler Lockett during the 2014 season. That's good company to be in and it also signals that there's a different kind of offense at Kansas State so far this season. This offense is passing the ball a lot more as Avery Johnson surpassed 300 passing yards for the first time in his career against North Dakota. That sets up well for Brown who is well on pace for a 1,000-yard receiving season.

Strong start in loss to Cyclones Brown had four receptions (on eight targets) for 78 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 24-21 defeat to Iowa State.

Impact Brown also added two rushing attempts for 29 yards as he was one of the best playmakers on the field on Saturday. Kansas State's star running back Dylan Edwards hurt himself right away on a muffed punt which put much more responsibility on QB Avery Johnson to make plays with his arm. He did just that with a strong second half, including a touchdown to Brown. Look for Brown to have a productive season in Kansas State's offense in 2025. They'll play an easier opponent in North Dakota next week.

Brown showed some chemistry with Avery Johnson in an otherwise poor passing day, and he should see an expanded role in 2024.
