SEPTEMBER 9 • Associated Press

Not playing Week 1 Brown (knee) has been ruled out for New England's matchup against the Seahawks on Thursday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reprots.

Impact Brown was part of the team's roster cuts last month but eventually re-signed with them a day later. Once healthy, he will serve as the Patriots' backup center behind Jared Wilson.

Released by New England The Patriots released Brown on Monday.

Impact Brown signed a two-year extension with the Patriots in late December. The reserve offensive lineman picked up an injury in the team's preseason opener that sidelined him for the remainder of training camp. Brown is now a free agent, and his lack of an injury designation on release means he is fully healthy and capable of signing with another franchise.

Will miss weeks Brown (undisclosed) will miss time throughout the preseason and into the regular season, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The versatile depth offensive lineman signed a two-year extension with the Patriots in late December. Brown picked up an injury during Thursday's preseason opener against the Colts and will be sidelined for the foreseeable future. The backup center is a key candidate for a cutdown day movement to IR, which will allow Brown to be designated as one of two players available to return from preseason IR at some point during the regular season.

Sticking with New England The Patriots signed Brown (concussion) to a one-year, $1.3 million extension Thursday, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Brown, who would have been an exclusive-rights free agent this offseason, served as the Patriots' starting center in all 10 of his regular-season appearances with the team in 2024. He spent the team's final two games on IR due to a concussion, but Brown figures to be fully healthy for the start of offseason activities.

FEBRUARY 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ending season on injured reserve The Patriots placed Brown (concussion) on injured reserve Saturday, Chris Mason of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Brown will miss the last two games of the regular season after being placed in the league's concussion protocol following the Patriots' Week 16 loss to the Colts. He started at center in all 10 games that he played in and will enter free agency in the offseason.

JANUARY 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined for Week 18 Brown (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Brown sustained a concussion in the Patriots' Week 17 loss to the Chargers and was unable to clear the NFL's five-step protocol in time to suit up for the team's regular-season finale Sunday. With Brown sidelined in Week 18, Cole Strange is expected to shift over and start at center, while Layden Robinson will likely fill the void at left guard.

JANUARY 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Downgraded to out for Saturday Brown (concussion) was downgraded to out for Saturday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Brown has started New England's last 10 contests at center, so this is a significant loss for the Patriots' undermanned offensive line. Brown's loss potentially opens the door for Cole Strange to start at center.
