Early life and college career

Brown played football and basketball at Albert G. Lane Tech High School in Chicago, Illinois, where he earned All-American honors in football and All-City honors in basketball.[1] He played football at Illinois for three years until transferring to Western Illinois in 1997.[1]

Pro football career

Undrafted in 1998, Brown was a member of the Denver Broncos from 1998 to 2002, primarily as a member of the practice squad.[2][3] Brown won a ring as a member of the Broncos Super Bowl XXXIII championship team in 1998.[1]

In 1999, Brown was suspended for four games for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Brown was the first Bronco to violate the policy.[4] The NFL reinstated Brown on June 10, 2001, and he spent the 2001 season on the practice squad.[3] The Broncos waived Brown on August 26, 2002, prior to the regular season.[5]

Brown played his later football career in the Arena Football League, with the Colorado Crush in 2003, Philadelphia Soul from 2004 to 2006, and Kansas City Brigade in 2007.[6]
