Looking like a GTD Brown (thumb) is warming up and is likely a game-time decision, Stephen Igoe of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Brown hasn't played since Week 2, but this looks like his best chance to return to action yet. The quarterback's surgically-repaired thumb is reportedly heavily wrapped pre-game, but he appears to be giving it a go. If Brown can't go, UNC Charlotte will call on either Trexler Ivey or Deshawn Purdie.

Could return vs. ECU Brown (undisclosed) is back at practice for Charlotte and could return to the field against East Carolina, Stephen Igoe of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Brown will reportedly be a game-time decision against the Pirates. The quarterback hasn't played since Week 2 while dealing with an injury. So far in 2024, he's thrown for 368 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions while completing 52.6 percent of his passes. If Brown can't go, Trexler Ivey should continue to play for the 49ers.

Not listed on depth chart Brown (undisclosed) is not listed on Charlotte's official team depth chart ahead of Saturday's matchup against Rice.

Impact Brown previously missed each of the team's last two games against Gardner-Webb and Indiana, respectively, and appears to be heading for another absence against Rice. The redshirt sophomore suffered an undisclosed injury against North Carolina that was described as "serious" by coaches.

Won't play vs. Indiana Brown (undisclosed) won't play in Week 4 against the Hoosiers, Hunter Bailey of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Brown missed Week 3 against Gardner-Webb, and it appears whatever ailment the quarterback has will keep him out at least one more game. He's had an uneven start to the season, throwing for 368 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions while completing 52 percent of his passes. This leaves Trexler Ivey as the 49ers' starting quarterback.

After hosting Gardner-Webb, the 49ers are expected to have their subsequent matchup at Indiana on Sept. 21.

Impact Brown completed 8 of his 12 pass attempts for 175 yards before exiting the game in the second quarter. If he ends up being unable to return, DeShawn Purdie will serve as the team's starting quarterback for the remainder of the matchup.

Impact Brown completed fewer than 50 percent of his passes for fewer than 200 yards and turned the ball over three times. It was a rough outing for him in his first game since transferring over from Florida, but it is more of the same for Charlotte quarterbacks. He faces a more difficult matchup Saturday at UNC.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as starting QB Brown is listed as starting quarterback in the 49ers' depth chart for their game Saturday against James Madison.

Impact At least for one game, Brown has defeated Trexler Ivey in the 49ers' quarterback battle. Their new QB1 is projected to log his second start as a collegiate athlete. Though his first did not go so well, Brown could be forgiven for playing against Florida State, whose 2023 team was undefeated before the College Football Playoff. James Madison should be a much easier opponent for him to showcase more of his talent.
