Justin Brown is a ball-hawking Nevada safety making plays early in 2026

He looks like a high-IQ, attack-minded defender who diagnoses quickly and finishes cleanly, which is exactly the kind of disruptive back-end presence coaches love when they want a secondary that can create extra possessions[10][13].
