The 6-foot-5, 205-pound former Georgia player has emerged as one of quarterback Joe Flacco's most frequent targets, catching eight passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns.
Brown leads the team in touchdown catches, ranks third in receptions, second in receiving yards and has a 13.8 average per reception.
"To come into a team where they have some wide receiver issues, I had an opportunity to come in and start playing early," Brown said. "I've just been trying to seize every opportunity I get."
To say the Ravens are pleased with Brown despite a dropped pass Sunday during a 14-6 win over the Cleveland Browns would be an understatement.
"Marlon Brown is a humble, hungry, hard-working guy," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. "There are plenty of things he can get better at, route-running wise and playmaking-wise. He stays after it, and he made some big plays for us."
Starting opposite wide receiver Torrey Smith, who led the Ravens with seven receptions for 85 yards against the Browns, Brown caught four passes for 45 yards on six targets.
