CINCINNATI BENGALS 2024 NOTES

Second-year HB Chase Brown leads the Cincinnati
this season in rushing attempts (105) and rushing yards (479), and his six total
TDs since Week 4 (four rushing, two receiving) are tied for the third-most among
all NFL running backs in that span.

He is coming off perhaps his best performance as a pro in the Week 9 win over Las Vegas, as he set career highs
in carries (27), rushing yards (120) and scrimmage yards (137), while also
catching a Joe Burrow TD pass on the Bengals’ first offensive possession. He
scored his first two career rushing TDs in Week 4 at Carolina, then the following
week against Baltimore had his first scoring reception of the season.

He sealed the Week 6 victory over the N.Y. Giants with a season-long 30-yard run to the
end zone late in the fourth quarter, and two games later his four-yard rushing TD
tied the score against Philadelphia in the second half.

Recognized for his quick burst out of the backfield, Brown is averaging 4.6 yards per carry and has a
team-best 14 runs of 10-plus yards. Cincinnati’s fifth-round pick in the 2023 draft,
Brown spent four games on the Reserve/Injured list midway through his rookie
season due to a hamstring injury, but returned to post 322 yards from scrimmage
over the final six contests.
