Brown was sidelined for New England's Week 8 win over Miami, and with another 'DNP' - his third straight -- on tap, the wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Packers is cloudy. On the plus side for the Patriots, Mack Hollins (calf) could return from IR this weekend to bolster a WR corps that also includes DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams.
