Description
Kyron Brown is an NFL cornerback for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Akron. Brown was a member of the Akron Zips for five seasons, redshirting his true freshman season. He recorded 121 tackles, six interceptions, 1 forced fumble and 25 passes defensed in 51 games played. (26 starts) He was a hard worker in the weight room and won the “Iron Zip” award for his efforts as a senior. He was also honored as the best junior player on the defense (2017) and was voted a team captain as a senior.
There’s a lot to like about Brown. He’s a weight-room warrior, motivated and tenacious enough to excel man-to-man, with the gridiron IQ to excel in zone schemes. He plays a physical brand of football and is not intimidated by anyone. He played primarily in man, off man, and zone coverages but has the size and ball skills to be worked into any press man or hybrid type schemes as well.
Brown signed with the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent on May 10, 2019. He was cut at the end of training camp during final roster cuts, but was re-signed by the Jets to their practice squad on September 1, 2019. Brown was promoted to the Jets’ active roster on November 13th, 2019. Brown made his NFL debut on November 17th, 2019 against the Washington Redskins, playing ten snaps on special teams in a 34-17 victory. Brown made his first career start on December 8th against the Miami Dolphins, making five tackles before leaving the game due to a quad injury. He was placed on injured reserve on December 9th, 2019. Brown played in 3 games in his rookie season with the Jets.
The featured Akron Zips Football adidas climalite shirt was game worn by Kyron Brown under his Akron jersey as a member of the Zips. The talented cornerback has signed the shirt and added “Game Worn Go Zips!” in silver. The shirt’s sleeves have been cut off by Brown for comfort. Awesome shirt directly from the former Zips cornerback!!!
