On Sunday, Brown hauled in a pass for a four-yard gain against the Kansas City Chiefs for his first catch of the game. The catch took Brown to 1,502 yards on the season which broke his old single-season receiving record.
Brown also became the first wide receiver in franchise history to surpass 1,500 yards in a season.
Entering Sunday’s game at Heinz Field, Brown led the NFL in catches and receiving yards. He also led the league in catches for a first-down.
Brown, along with the rest of the Steelers offense, is having a record-setting year and that could be enough to carry the team into the postseason if things go their way throughout the next two weeks.
