When the Washington Football Team selected North Carolina wide receiver Dyami Brown in the third round of the 2021 NFL draft, many around the league regarded it as a draft-day steal.
In his preseason debut against the New England Patriots, Brown caught two passes for 16 yards.
During his college career at UNC, Brown was known for his big-play ability. In his final two seasons with the Tar Heels, Brown went for over 1,000 yards in each season, averaging 20 yards per reception.
In Washington’s Week 2 preseason home opener against the Cincinnati Bengals, Brown didn’t waste any time showing WFT fans that big-play ability.
Washington quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick found Brown down the right sideline for a nice 29-yard reception.

Brown finished the first half with two receptions for 33 yards. It’s unlikely Brown sees much playing time in the second half with Washington wanting to evaluate other wide receivers such as Dax Milne, DeAndre Carter and Antonio Gandy-Golden.
Washington fans are going to love Brown.
