Whenever fantasy football owners are faced with the prospect of losing a weekly starting player, they tend to panic, frantically search for updates and scour the rejection ropes to find them. potential substitutes. That is certainly the case for Marquise Brown before Week 11. The Ravens star is “in question” with a thigh injury and here is the game-time decision for Baltimore’s game in Chicago. His status will have a great influence on their decision to start, which is why we will do our best to help his worried owners.
We’ll have the latest Brown updates until the official active/inactive report is released on Sunday around 11:35 a.m. ET. For all the latest fantasy updates, follow us on Twitter @SN_Fosystem.
Is Marquise Brown playing Week 11?
After missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday, Brown (thigh) join a limited session on Friday. It’s a good sign of his readiness against the Bears on Sunday, but by no means guarantees he will be active.
WEEK 11 PPR ASSESSMENT:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker
Brown has been one of the most consistent fantasy WRs this year, and even in a rare game last week, he still saw 13 goals. He has made himself a must-start regardless of opponent, and that will be the case again this week if he is active. Chicago is actually allowing the WRs to have the fourth most fantasy points per game, so Brown is fit for a big show as long as he’s on the field.
WEEK 11 STANDARD RATINGS:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker
If Brown is absent, Rashod Bateman and Sammy Watkins will both see increased targeting. Bateman, who has stepped into the second receiver role, will be a solid WR2, while Watkins will be a good versatile. TE Mark Andrews will also be more involved, but he’s already the one to start.

Of course, the added difficulty to all of this is that Lamar Jackson (illness) is “questionable”, so if Tyler Huntley starts, it will devalue everyone. Brown would remain a start if active, while Bateman would be a more flexible frontier if Brown were absent.
