White guy from a small school who lit camp up and had like 3 brut drops in preseason and didn’t make the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve seen this before where some unknown WR is getting all the attention right before evaporating in the preseason. Brownlee could easily be starting on Thursday. He needs to make a couple plays in live action. I’m still encouraged. Chas Gessner 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To your point though, WR is definitely the most common position you hear throughout the league in every year's camp of the newest unknown guys who are lighting it up during non-contact practices lined up against other no-namers, all of whom you never hear from again. Certainly hoping for it to be more than that here, as there's certainly times when it also works out, but a tad premature for people to be falling in love with a guy who has yet to take a snap based solely on second-hand information about practice reps. Can't totally blame those who choose to be wildly optimistic at this point of the year while they still can (although hopefully that lasts much, much longer this year), but it then also makes it difficult to take a lot of what is said particularly seriously.

Jetkwondo Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Just watched some college film on Brownlee and the guy who immediately came to mind a few minutes in was Jericho Cotchery. I then compared their height, weight, speed and all are very similar but what really stands out is the sure handed, strong catches but doesn't seem to have breakaway speed after. Even their college stats are very similar- TD's Cotch 20/ Brownlee 21 and Avg Catch Cotch 15.6/ Brownlee 15.9. If he works out I see a Corey Davis replacement next year... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always one. Mid0rounder, late-rounder, UDFA. They rarely amount to anything, but now is the time to start finding out. Chad Hansen. Jordan Whitehead. Greg Dortch.

Marshmello Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Looks like he is playing tonight per Connor Hughes ** Jason Brownlee, who injured himself after that absurd 1-handed catch, will play against the Browns, I’m told. Excited to see if what he’s been doing in practices he continues in games. I don’t think we’re close to a point where he’d kick Corey Davis out of a roster spot, but he could be another nice UDFA find for Joe Douglas. He’s big, physical & athletic. The biggest key to him finding a spot on the 53 (and not PS) is if he can play specials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
