DJ Brown brings Penn a versatile, disruptive front-seven spark
In the 2025 season, Penn’s DJ Brown appeared in all 10 games and split time at linebacker, defensive end and on special teams, finishing with 6 total tackles, 2 QB hurries and a season-high 2 tackles against Dartmouth. The appeal here is versatility: he’s the kind of rugged, high-motor defender who can be plugged into multiple roles and chase plays off the edge. For a team wanting toughness, depth and special-teams value, he looks like a useful Swiss Army knife rather than a box-score star.
