The Kansas City Chiefs have decided to place wide receiver Hollywood Brown on injured reserve, according to Jordan Schultz. The veteran will have surgery to repair his damaged SC joint and will miss at least the next four weeks of the season (if not more). This obviously causes massive ripples in the fantasy football landscape for Brown as well as fellow Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy.
Fantasy managers who have IR spots can simply keep Brown on their rosters, but those who don’t might want to consider cutting him for a hot free agent. Remember, the Chiefs have a bye in Week 6, so Brown won’t be back until late October in a best-case scenario.
