John Brown has always been a talented wide receiver while on the field. He's battled health issues that have kept him from realizing his full potential, but over the last few weeks, we've started to see the old John Brown again.
Brown caught a touchdown for the second straight week in Sunday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was a botched call in Week 4 away from a touchdown in three consecutive games. He had seen at least seven targets in every game this season until Sunday, where Arizona's massive early-game lead against Tampa Bay led a rejuvenated Carson Palmer to only attempt 22 passes. Despite seeing just four targets against the Bucs, Brown set a season-high mark with 63 yards receiving.
Palmer has supported two fantasy-relevant receivers before, and Brown is clearly the number-two option in the Arizona Cardinals' aerial attack right now. He should not be this widely available.
