For the third time in less than a week, a Mississippi State football player has announced he is leaving the program early.
Junior linebacker Beniquez Brown is the latest to announce he will forego his senior season to enter the 2016 NFL Draft MSU confirmed on Wednesday. Brown joins wide receiver De’Runnya Wilson and defensive tackle Chris Jones as Bulldog underclassmen who will move on from Mississippi State to pursue professional careers.
Brown was a two-year starter for Mississippi State. He ended his Bulldog tenure last week in MSU’s 51-28 victory over NC State in the Belk Bowl with nine tackles, two sacks and two tackles for loss.
