Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise “Hollywood” Brown will make his season debut on Saturday afternoon against the visiting Houston Texans.
Brown, who was listed as active for the game, has worked his way back after being placed on injured reserve on Sept. 13 with a sternoclavicular joint injury sustained in the preseason opener.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes also was active for the Chiefs (13-1) against the Texans (9-5). Mahomes was a full participant in practice on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday despite nursing a high right ankle sprain he suffered during the fourth quarter of last Sunday’s 21-7 victory over the Cleveland Browns.
Brown, 27, signed a one-year, $7 million contract with the Chiefs in March after three seasons with the Baltimore Ravens (2019-21) and two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals (2022-23).
Brown has 313 catches for 3,644 yards and 28 touchdowns in 72 career games (65 starts). He posted a 1,000-yard season with the Ravens in 2021.
The Chiefs opened up a roster spot for Brown earlier this week when they released veteran running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
While Brown will play on Saturday for Kansas City, the team listed the following players as inactive: defensive ends Joshua Uche and Malik Herring, defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu, defensive back Chamarri Conner, offensive tackles D.J. Humphries and Ethan Driskell and offensive lineman C.J. Hanson.
As for the Texans, guard Nick Broeker, defensive tackle Folorunso Fatukasi, defensive end Jerry Hughes, wide receiver John Metchie, center Juice Scruggs, tight end Cade Stover and inside linebacker Devin White were listed as inactive for Saturday’s game.
