Rico Brown is a former Western Kentucky defensive back who flashed rare versatility after converting from wide receiver, finishing the 2013 season with 29 tackles while also bringing proven playmaking value on offense and special situations. In his WKU career, he logged 26 catches for 379 yards and added 6 rushing yards, which shows a player with ball skills, toughness, and the kind of adaptable athletic profile coaches love.
