Freddy Brown brings speed and upside to Western Michigan’s linebacker room
In the 2025 season, Freddy Brown showed early-career flashes for Western Michigan with 3 total tackles, and his appeal is bigger than the stat line: the Broncos recruited him for his speed, versatility, and the fact that he played all over the field in high school. He’s a compact, active linebacker at 5-foot-11 and about 215 pounds, and Western Michigan’s staff highlighted his intelligence, leadership traits, and ability to bring energy to the position group. For a team looking for a developmental LB with athletic juice and room to grow, Brown is a worthwhile fit.
