With anticipation building for WR Marquise 'Hollywood' Brown's potential return to the KC Chiefs, an NFL insider provided some context on Sunday morning.
are back in the winner's circle following a Week 12 triumph over the Carolina Panthers, and quarterback Patrick Mahomes turned in perhaps his best performance of the season. Despite dealing with a banged-up supporting cast on Sunday afternoon, the two-time NFL MVP threw for 269 yards and three touchdowns in Charlotte.
The good news doesn't stop there, though, as Kansas City is also looking good on the injury front after weeks of unfortunate developments. Not only are' "NFL Today" program, outlet insider Jonathan Jones said the reigning champs could be getting a Christmas present right on time. Reporting on Sunday morning, Jones dropped a major hint regarding the ongoing recovery of wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown..
Brown appears to be tracking to practice at some point, which falls in line with the positive update head coach Andy Reid provided earlier this week.. "I can't tell you time when he'll be back, but he's another one that is excited to get back out here and get going, so I appreciate his way he's approached this whole thing."
It's been a trying past few months for Brown, who signed a one-year contract with the Chiefs back in March. After suffering a sternoclavicular injury in the club's first preseason game of the year, it didn't heal properly and he" and "on schedule or a little bit ahead of schedule" almost exactly a month ago, so nothing seems to be changing on that front.
If Brown does indeed make a return before the end of the season, there are a few avenues for it to happen. Judging based on Reid's update and Jones's report, Christmas Day's Week 17 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers is the earliest one. Week 18's game against the Denver Broncos has a to-be-determined kickoff time, but that'd give Brown a bit more flexibility to rest up.
