2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brown was a force on the field for the Huskies in the 2023 season, tearing up defenses and bruising defenders with quite the finishing stat line. The 5-foot-10 running back totaled 1,296 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns on 212. The team has experienced some changes in the offseason, most notably the loss of starting quarterback Rocky Lombardi. Depending on the reliability of Lombardi's replacement under center, it wouldn't be shocking to see a shift to an even heavier ground approach in 2024, which could mean a slight uptick in carries for Brown. Even a similar output would place Brown among the intriguing fantasy running back options in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Two touchdowns in close loss
Brown tallied 11 carries for 62 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 25-23 defeat versus Ball State.
ANALYSIS
Brown recorded his second game of the season with two touchdowns, which was more impressive considering he didn't have a 20-plus carry performance like he's recorded earlier this season. The senior running back looks to still be the RB1 in the Huskies' backfield, and that trend should continue when the team comes out of the bye against Western Michigan on Nov. 6.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Brown has compiled a pair of impressive seasons with the Huskies in 2021 and 2022, seeing a slight bump last year to 110 carries for 689 yards and seven touchdowns, all the best marks of his two-year career. With Harrison Waylee now out of the picture following his transfer to Wyoming, the backfield should be Brown's to command, leading to an expected growth in his production as part of a Northern Illinois offense that ranked 18th in the FBS last season with a 58.3 percent run-play rate.
