Brown (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brown hasn't been used heavily in the offense this season, and he will observe Sunday's game from the sidelines while the Cardinals go with three active tight ends in Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Josiah Deguara. Brown's last opportunity to play this season is Week 18 against the Rams.

Brown went without a target while playing seven of the Cardinals' 57 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
Quarterback Jacoby Brissett targeted tight ends on 17 of his 31 pass attempts Sunday, but the bulk of those looks went to Trey McBride (4-27-0 receiving line on eight targets) and Elijah Higgins (7-91-0 on eight targets). Brown and Josiah Deguara (no catches on one target), meanwhile, remained afterthoughts on offense, which is expected to remain par for the course over the final two games of the season, barring an injury to either McBride or Higgins.

The Cardinals signed Brown from their practice squad to the active roster Wednesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old has appeared in the Cardinals' last three games, contributing both offensively and on special teams (25 snaps on offense and 30 on special teams). Now with the active roster, Brown will likely continue playing a depth role in Arizona's tight-end room for the remainder of the season.

The Cardinals reverted Brown to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Brown got his third straight elevation ahead of Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay and played seven of Arizona's 61 offensive snaps along with seven snaps on special teams. He didn't get any targets, which is also true of of his first two appearances this season. Since Brown has been elevated the maximum three times, he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order for him to suit up again with the Cardinals during the regular season.

The Cardinals elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Brown will join the Cardinals' active roster for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. He has reached his limit of practice squad elevations for the season, meaning he would have to be signed to the active roster in order to continue to play for Arizona. Brown contributed on both offense and special teams in Weeks 11 and 12 and has logged one tackle for the season.

Brown reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Brown made his second appearance of the regular season during Sundays' 27-24 overtime loss to the Jaguars, when he played 20 snaps (eight on offense, 12 on special teams) while recording a tackle on punt coverage. He's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad once more by the Cardinals this season, which could come as soon as Week 13 against the Buccaneers this Sunday.

The Cardinals elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Brown was added to Arizona's practice squad in mid-October. He made his first appearance with the team in Week 11 against San Francisco, recording 11 offensive snaps and 10 on special teams. The 31-year-old will again be available for Week 12 as TE4 behind Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Josiah Deguara should Brown be active.

The Cardinals reverted Brown to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Brown got his first elevation of the campaign for Sunday's Week 11 loss to San Francisco. He logged 11 of Arizona's 79 offensive snaps, finishing third among the team's tight ends behind Trey McBride (70) and Elijah Higgins (28). Brown also played 10 snaps on special teams. He didn't record any other stats and drew two penalties on offense, including a holding penalty that wiped out a 60-yard Bam Knight touchdown in the third quarter.

The Cardinals elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brown caught on with the Cardinals' practice squad in mid-October after failing to make the Dolphins' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. If he's active for Sunday's NFC West tilt against the 49ers, then Brown would serve as the Cardinals' TE4 behind Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Josiah Deguara. Brown appeared in 15 regular-season games for the Seahawks in 2024, when he split his snaps between offense and special teams while hauling in eight passes (on 12 targets) for 65 yards.

The Cardinals signed Brown to the practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old tight end failed to make the Dolphins' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he'll get another opportunity to see regular-season action as a member of the Cardinals' practice squad. Arizona placed Travis Vokolek on injured reserve Wednesday due to a season-ending neck injury, and with Tip Reiman (ankle) also on IR, Brown would be a candidate to be elevated to the Cardinals' active roster should the team require depth at tight end. Trey McBride, Elijah Higgins and Walter Nolen are the three tight ends currently on the Cardinals' active roster.
