Third-down role concerns and lower touch equity limit Brown's ceiling.
Chase BrownRBCIN
Brown lacks a third-down role in Cincinnati due to pass-protection concerns and lost reps to Samaje Perine at season's end. He gets targets on first and second down and is an important part of the offense, but did not average 20+ touches per game; his touch equity is lower than elite backs like Bucky Irving despite playing in a strong offensive system. His status as Cincinnati's third-best offensive player (behind Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Burrow) constrains his upside.

Chase Brown doesn't have like the third down role necessarily because they don't trust him to pass protect. He lost out on reps to Samaje Perine at the end of the year and basically any time Perine's been healthy, that's kind of how it's been.
