Who Should I Start? Noah Brown or Adonai Mitchell

Monday, August 4, 10:47 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (undisclosed) did not practice on Monday. Brown suffered an injury during mandatory minicamp in June but has been practicing throughout training camp. As of now, there is no explanation for Brown's absence on Monday. Brown caught 35 passes for 453 yards and one touchdown for Washington in 2024 and could see a larger role in the team's offense this season if the Commanders decide to fulfill Terry McLaurin's trade demand from last week. Stay tuned as the team is likely to elaborate on Brown's absence from practice later in the day on Monday.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell caught two of his six targets for 37 yards in a 24-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the first week of preseason action. Mitchell finished tied for second on the team in targets and third in receiving yards while playing throughout the first half of the game. The second-year receiver showed flashes at times in 2024 and has drawn positive buzz from Colts brass during training camp this year. Mitchell should open the year as the No. 2 receiver across from Michael Pittman Jr., but his fantasy production could be spotty in what is not expected to be an explosive Indianapolis passing offense. The Colts' second preseason game comes next Saturday against the Green Bay Packers.
