Chase Brown
Fantasy Snapshot
PFM Fantasy Outlook
Brown's biggest 2025 jump came through the passing game. He caught 69 passes for 437 yards and five touchdowns, setting a Bengals record for receptions by a running back. The rushing side remained steady with 1,019 yards and six scores on 232 carries. Put it together and Brown cleared 1,450 yards from scrimmage with 11 total touchdowns.
PFM ranks him RB10 and No. 20 overall. That placement is driven by the shape of the workload, not just the first 1,000-yard rushing season of his career. Cincinnati used Brown as a receiver often enough to protect his fantasy floor when game script moved away from the run. The key for 2026 is maintaining that dual role. Another season near 300 combined carries and receptions would give Brown enough volume to stay in the RB1 range even without a major efficiency spike.
