A.J. Brown's knee injury raises concerns for Patriots' offense
Summary

New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown's knee injury continues to be a concern, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Brown has dealt with both ankle and knee issues, missing practices and a game last week against the Miami Dolphins. Schefter indicated that the knee injury is primarily responsible for Brown's absence and may hinder his future contributions. The Patriots acquired Brown in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles, hoping to enhance their receiving corps, but injury concerns have shadowed his start with the team. Brown has recorded only nine receptions for 101 yards across three games this season.
