PROJECTION

WHERE HOLLYWOOD BROWN IS TRENDING
The trend on Hollywood Brown points down, and the projection has to be read against that first. Per game he has fallen from 59.1 in 2022 to 36.7 in 2025 — down 38%.
Availability is part of the story: 16 games on record in 2025, best of 99 in Week 1, worst of 0.
Measured against this week's 50.2 projection, he cleared it in 3 of 16 games last season.
Split his 16 games down the middle and the two halves do not match: 39.5 receiving yards per game early, then 33.9 late.

White line = his actual median (36.5). Gold line = this week's WinForge projection (50.2). This bar is built from recorded results, not a modelled range.
THE SHAPE OF HIS 2025 SEASON
His 2025 weeks were not evenly spread. The best was 99 receiving yards in Week 1 against LAC; the quietest was 0 in Week 8 against WAS. He finished above his own 37-per-game average in 8 of 16 games.
He accounted for at least one touchdown in 4 of 16 games, and more than one in 1 of them. Scoring is the most volatile part of any projection, so a record built on a handful of multi-score weeks reads differently from one spread evenly.
His longest single play on record in 2025 went for 51 yards. That single play is worth about 139% of an average game for him, which is the difference between a total built on steady volume and one that depends on a single play landing.
His role moved during the season: roughly 68% of snaps across his first 5 recorded games, then 54% across his last 5 — a shrinking share. Role changes travel into the next season more reliably than yardage does.
Across those games he handled 74 targets and no carries on record.
