WVU product Michael Brown is continuing his playing career in the new UFL. The San Antonio Brahmas have signed the former Mountaineer as the franchise transitions from the XFL into the new league.
Brown confirmed the news by sharing a report of the news on X (Twitter) on Monday night.
After starting his college career at Eastern Arizona College, Brown transferred to West Virginia in 2018. He then played three seasons and appeared in 25 games the Mountaineers.
Brown started in 16 games at WVU, splitting time at left guard and right guard. In 2020, Brown started all ten games at right guard and was named a consensus All-Big 12 second-team selection.
The Compton, CA native was never able to experience an NFL career despite briefly signing with the Saints.
This spring the UFL will debut as a new league, combining teams from the recent iterations of the XFL and USFL. Brown is far from the only former WVU player involved. The St. Louis Battlehawks are even coached by former Mountaineer Anthony Becht.
