A.J. Brown’s first season with the New England Patriots hasn’t gone as planned. He started quiet in Week 1 and then injured his ankle, missing several games. When he returned in Week 6, he dropped some key passes. Now, in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears, he’s off to another slow start. He’s on the field for Thursday night’s game, but so far, he hasn’t hauled in a catch. He’s been targeted once, but the offense has been sluggish, with just one first down in the first two drives. Quarterback Drake Maye has been connecting with the running backs instead. Here’s hoping the next drive turns things around.
