Sat Sep 5 2015 | 10:26 | Brown released by Panthers |
Brown has been released by the Panthers, Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer reports. |
Brown was always a longshot to make the roster, and his fate was sealed when the Panthers traded for Kevin Norwood on Monday. A former undrafted free agent, Brown caught just seven passes for 88 yards in five games for the Jaguars last season. |
Thu Jan 15 2015 | 14:45 | The Panthers have signed Brown to futures contract |
The Panthers have signed Brown to a futures contract, ESPN.com reports. |
The Panthers have signed Brown and Stephen Hill, while working out CFL star Duron Carter, in order to bolster the team's depth at wideout in advance of free agency and the NFL draft. Brown, who caught seven passes for 88 yards in five games for the Jags this past season, could compete for a slot role with the Panthers this summer, but several things would have to break in his favor in order for him to enter the fantasy equation. |

The Jaguars have waived Brown, the Florida Times-Union reports. |
Replacing Brown -- who has seven catches for 88 yards in five games to date -- will be fellow wideout Tommy Streeter, who has been promoted from the Jaguars' practice squad. |
Sun Nov 9 2014 | 11:51 | Brown inactive for Sunday's game against Cowboys |
Brown is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. |
After appearing in the Jaguars' first five games this season, Brown will now miss his fifth straight game. He's not injured; he has simply fallen behind guys like Marqise Lee and Allen Hurns on the depth chart. |

Brown had two catches for 26 yards in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. |
Brown caught both of his targets from Blake Bortles, notching receptions of 15 and 11 yards. The Liberty product's upside in the Jags' offense is limited, but he'll continue to see snaps if Cecil Shorts (hamstring) and Marqise Lee (hamstring) remain out of action. |

Brown had three catches on five targets for 36 yards Sunday against the Eagles. |
Brown was passed over in the starting lineup for Allen Hurns, who was replacing the injury Cecil Shorts (hamstring). Hurns took full advantage of his opportunity, catching four passes on nine targets for 110 yards and two touchdowns, and coupled with fellow-rookie Marqise Lee, who had six catches on a team-high 10 targets for 62 yards, Brown appears to be the odd-man out when Shorts returns. |

Brown's teammate, Allen Hurns, will start Sunday's game against the Eagles in place of Cecil Shorts. |
Marqise Lee is the team's other listed starter for Week 1, though Brown and Allen Robinson could still factor in Sunday's offense, with the team's wideout depth thin this week. |

With Cecil Shorts (hamstring) out this week, Brown is a candidate to see added work in Sunday's game against the Eagles, the Florida Times-Union reports. |
The report projects that Brown is in line to start Sunday, along with Marqise Lee, presumably given that he is the Jags' most experienced healthy wideout at this stage. Brown remains a speculative play in Week 1 though, given that rookies Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns also figure to factor in on Sunday. |
Sat Sep 6 2014 | 08:29 | Brown expected to return punts Sunday |
Brown is expected to return punts Sunday, according to head coach Gus Bradley, the Jaguars' official site reports. |
Brown, who has never returned a punt in a regular season game, will be filling in for Ace Sanders, who is suspended for the first four games. |

Brown (hamstring) caught two passes for 37 yards in Friday's preseason opener against the Bucs. |
With Cecil Shorts (hamstring), Allen Robinson (hamstring) and Ace Sanders (personal) sidelined, the Jags used Brown, Marqise Lee and UDFA Allen Hurns as the top three receivers. Following the selection of both Robinson and Lee in the second round of May's draft, the Jags are hoping to marginalize Brown. He should make the final roster, but will likely need injuries in front of him in order to take on a major role. |

Brown was unable to finish Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury, The Florida Times-Union reports. |
Brown is currently jockeying for position at wide receiver on Jacksonville's depth chart, so he'll hope his hamstring ailment won't prevent him from playing in Friday's preseason opener versus the Buccaneers. However, at the moment, it's unclear whether Brown will be able to recover quick enough to suit up. |
Wed Apr 16 2014 | 19:06 | Jaguars WR Mike Brown signs ERFA tender |
Jaguars re-signed exclusive rights free agent WR Mike Brown to a one-year, $495,000 contract. |
Brown caught 32 balls for 446 yards and two touchdowns across 11 games and six starts last season. Ideally, he's nothing more than a No. 4 receiver. The Jaguars are a dark horse to snag Sammy Watkins or Mike Evans in the first round of next month's draft. Brown will have to compete for a roster spot this summer. |

Fri Mar 7 2014 | 10:43 | Jaguars tender offers to three ERFAs |
Jaguars tendered offers to exclusive rights free agents WR Mike Brown, WR Kerry Taylor, and G/T Austin Pasztor. |
Brown and Taylor will each earn $495,000. Pasztor will bag $570,000. Brown appeared in 11 games last season, starting six in place of Justin Blackmon, and caught 32 passes for 446 yards and two scores. He's merely a No. 4 receiver. Pasztor started 12 games at right tackle and was above average in pass pro. |

Sun Dec 29 2013 | 17:07 | Mike Brown held to 43 yards in Week 17 loss |
Jaguars WR Mike Brown caught three balls for 43 yards in Jacksonville's Week 17 loss to Indianapolis. |
Winding up with six starts in his second NFL season, Brown benefited from Justin Blackmon's in-season suspension and finished with 32 catches for 446 yards and two touchdowns. Turning 25 in February, Brown is a developing former college quarterback who likely projects as Jacksonville's No. 4 receiver in 2014, assuming Blackmon is reinstated. The Jaguars' top three wideouts are Cecil Shorts, Blackmon, and 2013 draft pick Ace Sanders. |

Brown was used in all two-wide sets with Ace Sanders and Kerry Taylor. The Jaguars take on the Colts in Week 17. |

Brown was targeted seven times on the day but dropped one pass and remains off the fantasy radar. He was set up to have a bigger day with Cecil Shorts (groin) sidelined, but it wasn't in the cards. Brown and the Jaguars take on the Titans in Week 16. Leave Brown on the waiver wire. |

Brown's biggest contribution came on Jacksonville's opening drive, where he muffed what should have been an easy 16-yard touchdown. Brown ran as the Jaguars' No. 3 receiver behind Cecil Shorts and Ace Sanders. He's not on the WR5 radar for the fantasy playoffs. |
