During his press conference ahead of their Week 8 showdown against the Baltimore Ravens, Brown shared his current health condition. He also revealed the true extent of the injury, which had him taking some serious medication .
"It's good. Just lingering stuff from what's happened to me the last couple of weeks here. Happened in that LA game, I just kind of got nicked up, and then I took enough drugs to sedate a small elephant when I was in LA. Everybody's laughing. It's protocol. NFL signed off on it, so it's OK," Brown said.

This season, he's yet to be slowed down by his back injury as he's played 88% of snaps.
