At that point, if all goes as well as it has been, he&#8217;s expected back on the practice field and could even play in Weeks 16 or 17.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>The Chiefs (11-1) became the first team to clinch a playoff berth with their 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Black Friday. While Kansas City has managed to stack wins this season, they&#8217;ve done so with just the 10th-best scoring offense (24.1 points per game) and the 15th-best total offense (341.6 yards per game). An infusion of big-play potential with Brown would help an offense that has seen its fair share of struggles.<\/p>\n<p>A former Ravens first-rounder who played for the Cardinals last season, Brown suffered a sternoclavicular shoulder joint injury in the Chiefs&#8217; preseason opener in August. The initial plan was to rehab and return, but he didn&#8217;t heal as well as first hoped and underwent surgery in early September.<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs losing Rashee Rice to a major knee injury in early October was a setback, though the midseason trade for DeAndre Hopkins, who&#8217;s produced 26 catches for 325 yards and three touchdowns with K.C., has helped mitigate the situation.<\/p>\n<p>With running back Isiah Pacheco making his long-awaited return on Friday, Brown&#8217;s potential arrival would be another added boost.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of the surgery, Brown posted on social media that he was &#8220;disappointed&#8221; and &#8220;frustrated&#8221; but added, &#8220;Knowing that this to shall pass, no matter the great opportunity I had in front of me. It&#8217;s not over and that&#8217;s not the path God wanted for me and I&#8217;m perfectly fine with that now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Thanks in part to excellent work in rehab, Brown should prove sooner rather than later that his first season with the Chiefs is far from over.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marquise \u201cHollywood\u201d Brown, the electric Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver, is expected back soon from a shoulder injury and it&#8217;s likely he plays before the regular season is over, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":14186,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14185","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
