Brown’s veteran QB Cortland Dicks brings experience, poise, and a two-sport athlete’s edge
In the 2024 season, Cortland Dicks was a senior quarterback at Brown who appeared in all 10 games on special teams, giving the Bears a seasoned, team-first competitor with real program familiarity.[1] His prep profile shows why coaches keep betting on him: he was a First Team Class-A NEPSAC pick, led Deerfield to a 2019 bowl title, and completed 72% of his passes for 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns as a high-school senior.[1][4][13] The differentiator is not just arm talent; it is toughness, versatility, and an athlete who has also produced in basketball and track, the kind of steady, low-drama piece that can fit a smart, detail-heavy locker room.[1][13]
