"There are very few players around the league who've gone through more injury hardship than Noah Brown over the last year. The wide receiver suffered an internal problem that required kidney surgery in 2024. He was carted off during mandatory minicamp with a knee injury. Then, it was a groin injury in Week 2. The latest - a hip issue in only his second game back - landed him on injured reserve once again."
"The Hail Mary miracle man is out of contract this offseason. Washington's decision-makers gave him a new deal last time around. However, Brian Mitchell doesn't believe the same will happen again in 2026. Mitchell laid out Brown's situation perfectly. He came into the club with injury concerns, and they've reared their head almost constantly. Now is the perfect time to look elsewhere."
"I know you can't [keep him around]. He came in here with that reputation. He was injured a good bit last year. He got injured, basically, most of this year. You can't roll those dice anymore. You got snake eyes in three."
Noah Brown endured multiple significant injuries across 2024–2025, including kidney surgery in 2024, a knee injury at mandatory minicamp, a Week 2 groin injury, and a hip problem that placed him on injured reserve. Brown is out of contract this offseason after previously receiving a new deal. Brian Mitchell stated that re-signing Brown in 2026 would be risky given his persistent availability issues. Head coach Dan Quinn respects Brown's character and play, but the repeated injuries and failure to complete a full season in five years leave his future with the Commanders uncertain.
