Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown was discharged from a Jacksonville-area hospital Sunday morning, hours after he sustained a dislocation of his sternoclavicular shoulder joint in his team's 26-13 preseason loss to the Jaguars.

Brown, who was cleared to return to Kansas City, was injured on the Chiefs' first offensive play of the game. He made the catch for 11 yards.

"He'll miss some time," Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Saturday of Brown.

Brown signed with Kansas City in the offseason as a free agent. He received a one-year, $7 million deal.

Brown, 27, had 51 receptions for 574 yards and four touchdowns last season in 14 games for the Arizona Cardinals.

Brown was a first-round draft choice (25th overall) by the Baltimore Ravens in 2019. He had career bests of 91 receptions and 1,008 yards in 2021 during his third and final season with the Ravens.

He was traded after the season and spent the last two seasons with the Cardinals. He has 313 career catches for 3,644 yards and 28 touchdowns in 72 games (65 starts).
