A.J. Brown vs NYJ — Trending Toward Return in Divisional Showdown
Brown returned to practice this week after New England opened his 21-day IR practice window, and he is trending toward suiting up Sunday against the Jets. Sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 1, his return would immediately restore him as the focal point for Drake Maye on the perimeter.
While his top-tier talent is obvious, our models hold a cautious 0-point projection pending his official activation, and managers have started him in just 6% of leagues. Given potential snap restrictions in his first contest back, check back often for the latest updates on his availability before setting lineups.

Colston Loveland at Atlanta: High-Scoring Environment Offers Rebound Opportunity
Loveland remains Chicago's primary tight end and has seen steady involvement with 14 targets across his past two games, though fantasy start rates have dipped to 49%. Quarterback Tyson Bagent recently emphasized looking for the young tight end on checkdowns, providing a solid target floor as the offense heads indoors.
With this road matchup against Atlanta carrying a lofty 51.5 over/under, Loveland has a favorable setup to find paydirt. Our models project him for about 3.6 catches, 39 receiving yards, and 9.1 fantasy points, making him a viable streaming option who could outproduce expectations with red-zone looks.
