The Facts:
Brown (hamstring) missed his fourth consecutive practice but looked improved running on a side field.
Reported by the San Diego Union-Tribune
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Brown has made it clear the current issue is not related to his broken ankle that wiped out his season last year. But the fact he missed all of last year -- he was hurt in the second pre-season game -- makes getting snaps in camp this season more important. He needs the work to emerge as the front-line weapon team officials and local observers expect him to be this year. ... Remember: As a rookie in 2011, Brown had 19 catches for 329 yards and two touchdowns. Of those totals, 13 receptions, 234 yards and a score came in four starts. If healthy, he'll be a player of great fantasy interest.
