Following an injury-shortened 2024 campaign, Hollywood Brown is set to begin the 2025 NFL season with a renewed sense of purpose.
The veteran wide receiver, now fully recovered from a clavicle injury that sidelined him for most of last season, enters training camp determined to prove he can still be a reliable and dynamic weapon for Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Brown signed a one-year, $7 million contract this offseason, which includes $6.5 million in guarantees and a $3 million signing bonus, according to Spotrac.com.
The short-term nature of the deal highlights the stakes for Brown: this season is not just about contributing to the Chiefs – it’s about rebuilding his value across the league.
Realistic Expectations for 49ers QB Brock Purdy in 2025
The former Baltimore Ravens first-round pick barely saw the field in 2024 after suffering his injury on the opening play of the preseason. He didn’t make his first regular season appearance until late December and had little time to integrate fully into the offense before the postseason began.
While he was active during Kansas City’s playoff run, the coaching staff understandably limited his role in high-pressure situations given his long layoff.
Now healthy and with a full offseason ahead, Brown is preparing to be a bigger part of the Chiefs’ offensive plans.
Patrick Mahomes confident in WR group’s potential
While Brown hasn’t reached 1,000 receiving yards since his final season in Baltimore, he isn’t being brought in to carry the offense. Instead, his role is to add veteran experience and versatility to a young and evolving receiving corps.
The Chiefs’ 2025 wide receiver unit features promising talent, but it lacks a seasoned presence who can mentor and contribute when it matters. Mahomes expressed excitement about the group’s potential, including Brown, during a recent media session.
“I mean, you talk about Xavier, Rashee, Hollywood, Thornton. I mean, Royals coming in, we got guys that can roll,” Mahomes said. “Our job is to test the defenses down the field, and we have to get back to doing that if we wanna open up other guys underneath.”
Mahomes‘ comment underscores the team’s desire to reintroduce a vertical threat to the offense – something Brown has consistently delivered when healthy. Known for his breakaway speed and ability to stretch defenses, Brown could play a key role in restoring the Chiefs‘ deep-passing game, which took a step back last season amid a rotating cast of receivers.
With Rashee Rice returning and younger receivers like Xavier Worthy joining the fold, Brown’s presence gives the group balance. Whether he’s used on deep balls or in short-yardage scenarios to create separation and move the chains, the Chiefs are expected to carve out a consistent role for the 26-year-old.
If Brown can stay healthy and deliver even flashes of his early-career form, he could be in for a strong contract push heading into 2026. For now, the focus is on making the most of this opportunity in Kansas City – and helping the Chiefs make another run at a championship.

The non-League player off to AFCON with Tanzania for a second time
On Boxing Day 2023, Tarryn Allarakhia played an hour of Wealdstone's 2-0 win over Maidenhead United in the National League. Less than two weeks later he was making his debut for Tanzania in a friendly against Egypt, facing off against Mohamed Salah, Mohamed Elneny, Trezeguet and Omar Marmoush, no less. The word 'whirlwind' comes to mind. Allarakhia was east London born and raised; his mum is English, with his Tanzanian heritage from his dad. He was on Leyton Orient's books as a youngster, but barring three seasons at Crawley between 2018 and 2021, has otherwise played in non-League.The 28-year-old had visited his nan and other family members in "beautiful" Tanzania a handful of times, but the level he was playing at meant playing international football was far from his mind.

Vítkovice chtějí zastavit příval gólů. Získaly Američana s litvínovskou minulostí
„Trenér mi zavolal a bavili jsme se, že je příležitost hrát ve Vítkovicích. Líbí se mu moje hra a věřím, že udělám další skok v kariéře. Vím, že klub má bohatou historii a budeme se snažit dosáhnout dalších úspěchů. Já i moje snoubenka jsme velice šťastní, že tady můžeme být,“ řekl klubovému webu 29letý Američan.Vítkovice dostaly v posledních dvou týdnech v průměru čtyři góly na zápas, za 31 odehraných kol celkově už devadesát. Hůř je na tom s 96 obdrženými brankami už jen poslední Litvínov. A s tím by měl rodák z amerického Hartfordu Wesley, jehož v roce 2014 draftovala ve čtvrtém kole Carolina Hurricanes, pomoct.„Očekává se ode mě fyzická hra, hraji silový hokej jeden na jednoho, ale umím také podpořit útok.
