Chargers praising rookie free agent CB Tony Brown after first minicamp practice

His career at the University of Alabama was loaded with off-field issues, but Tony Brown was able to accomplish three Southeastern Conference championships, a pair of College Football Playoff national titles, and even made a critical interception in the title game versus Georgia.

He was unarguably the most emotionally invested player of the Nick Saban era, and despite not getting selected in the NFL Draft, Brown immediately signed with the Los Angeles Chargers as an undrafted free agent. During the team’s opening session of minicamp on Friday, head coach Anthony Lynn took notice in the ex-Crimson Tide standout as his play turned heads on the field.
