The last player to do so was Brian Dawkins in 2002. Once coached by the ultimate two-way superstar Deion Sanders, now Coach Prime’s pupil is making a serious impact in his second NFL season. He’s now up to two interceptions on the season after not recording any as a rookie.Related: 5 Josh Sweat Trade Destinations After NFL Rumors Heat UpWinner: Houston TexansOct 18, 2026; London, ENG; Houston Texans quarterback C.J.

His connection with Drake Maye was just off. Credit to the Patriots’ QB for continuing to give his WR1 opportunities, but New England didn’t part with a 2028 first-round pick for a player who just caught 3-of-10 targets for 27 yards. While some of the struggles can be chalked up to a lack of chemistry, Brown’s also at fault for dropping four passes. Most others would have been benched.
