SEATTLE (AP) — A.J. Brown injured his right ankle in his New England Patriots debut Wednesday night against Seattle and the standout receiver did not return. Patriots coach Mike Vrabel didn’t have an update on Brown’s condition after New England’s 13-10 loss.

Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown limped off the field in the third quarter and did not return to Wednesday's game.

A.J. Brown's much-anticipated Patriots debut came to a crashing halt early in the third quarter when the standout wide receiver suffered an ankle injury trying to pluck a low throw from Drake Maye. Brown was initially ruled questionable to return before being ruled out.

While Sam Darnold going down with an injury was unfortunate, not many fantasy owners were starting him, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba did just fine without him. It was AJ Brown getting knocked out of the game that made this night miserable for fantasy owners.

It's still unclear what kind of injury and recovery Patriots receiver A.J.

New England Patriots newcomer A.J. Brown walked to the locker room wearing one cleat after receiving medical attention on the field in Week 1.

AJ Brown begins a new chapter with the Patriots after a trade from Philadelphia, reuniting with coach Mike Vrabel in his eighth NFL season.
