Brown dislocated his thumb at Patriots practice Monday, but seems to be fine. The first-year Patriots receiver continued to practice with the injury, then smiled and laughed when talking about it in an interview with NFL Network.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was tough,&#8221; he said of the injury. &#8220;I tried to get back into that flow state zone really quickly because, obviously, you&#8217;re going through some pain. Obviously the game is what it is. You&#8217;re gonna get bumps and bruises and you&#8217;ve gotta keep going.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know it&#8217;s practice. But I&#8217;m not coming out of practice. Your thumb&#8217;s out of place, you keep going.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Brown said he dislocated the same thumb in college and continued to play the rest of the season. So it sounds like there&#8217;s nothing to worry about, Patriots fans.<\/p>\n<p>Brown joined New England in the offseason via trade from the Eagles and projects as the No. 1 target for third-year quarterback Drake Maye on the heels of the Patriots&#8217; trip to the Super Bowl last season. He&#8217;s a significant part of New England&#8217;s plans for a repeat AFC championship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A.J.
