Chiefs WR Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, who suffered a dislocation of his sternoclavicular shoulder joint Saturday night, was discharged from a Jacksonville-area hospital this morning and now has been cleared to return to Kansas City.
#Chiefs WR Marquise “Hollywood” Brown is expected to miss four to six weeks with the sternoclavicular injury he suffered, per multiple sources. Opening night is three weeks from this Thursday night.
Sources: The #Chiefs are placing WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown on IR, and he will undergo surgery to repair his dislocated SC joint. After multiple imaging studies, it was determined that, although Hollywood felt better, his injury was not healing correctly. Without corrective… pic.twitter.com/xtRRMvmseq
Andy Reid said Hollywood Brown is “ahead of schedule” and attacking his rehab, but he wouldn’t commit to a certainty of seeing him this season. Called him “a relentless worker.”
DeAndre Hopkins has 11 regular season games to get up to get fully comfortable within the #chiefs offense and with Patrick Mahomes. By the time the postseason arrives, I'm told there is a real chance Hollywood Brown could return. Which would make KC's it's most complete at the…
Players who don't get enough game reps are even more likely to get hurt with injuries like ACLs and teams who were very liberal on resting starters are looking like hot Doo Doo so far on offense this season. I am glad Andy is old school about making sure players are prepared in the preseason [Reply]

But I certainly don't believe Kelce to be the iron man he used to be. I have high hopes for Worthy and you can't hit WRs like you used, but I think there is at least a slight concern about how he holds up over a season.
I certainly don't have a lot of faith in JuJu' health.
It isn't desperate like last year, but losing Brown is still a big deal.
That's where I'm at. The bright side is we are still going to be great on offense and it gives Reid the excuse to ask worthy to do more than he usually allows rookie WRs which develops him faster. I thought mahomes was primed for a generational season with Hollywood so that's my only reason for disappointment and shows how good we have it. [Reply]
With Hollywood basically missing the season does that give KC a "do-over?"
Does Hollywood come back for next year for similar money to once again prove he can be an explosive no 1?
Missing the whole season sure as hell doesn't prove you're ready to shoulder a team's passing game. It sure won't provide the big payday he was hoping for this off-season. Could we get him back as we win 4 straight? [Reply]

This is just something people on the internet like to say. If you get hurt its because of lack of conditioning or stretching not because you got hit a certain way. There is absolutely no reason to believe any player will be more injury prone simply by not playing a preseason game.
There is no such thing as football shape unless you are a lazy high school player who doesn't do shit over the summer. They've had enough practices and off season work where this is a non factor. Your body does not know what football is. It just knows if you are in aerobic or anaerobic activity and if you stretched etc. [Reply]

Tell that to the Rams who just put their star C and WR (Puka) on IR after not doing anything but practicing the last 2 months [Reply]

Which is exactly why he had the quick turn around.
The whole point is these two injuries are completely different. Hill's situation was furthest on the positive as possible and Hollywood's is as far on the negative as possible. [Reply]

Yes, and when it first happened to Tyreek, his looked much more serious. Turned out not to be. That's also completely different from Hollywood's. [Reply]
