The Oklahoma Sooners have had some pretty great players in their history to end up going to the NFL. One of the more recent who was as explosive as it gets has to be Hollywood Brown.
He joined Oklahoma in 2017, where he played under head coach Lincoln Riley. As a true freshman, Brown made an immediate impact. He played a significant role in Oklahoma's high-powered offense, catching passes from quarterback Baker Mayfield. Brown was part of the team that went to the College Football Playoff, where they lost to Georgia in the Rose Bowl.
Brown became one of the top receivers in college football. He was a key component in Oklahoma's offense alongside quarterback Kyler Murray. His performance was highlighted by his ability to stretch the field with his speed. In this season, he had over 1,000 receiving yards and was a Biletnikoff Award finalist, given to the nation's best receiver.
Unfortunately, Brown suffered a foot injury during the season but returned for the College Football Playoff. Despite the injury, his contributions were significant, and he declared for the NFL Draft after this season.
Brown was then drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, where he had some good memories, but overall, was never really used to the best of his abilities. His next stop, of course, was the Arizona Ravens, where he was on a bad team both years and now, he has a chance to help the Kansas City Chiefs win their third straight Super Bowl, along with former Oklahoma Sooners center Creed Humphrey, who just got a massive payday.
But, there's one issue for Bown — he's injured and out for the first game of the season, which happens to be against his former team, the Ravens. According to A to Z Sports Kansas City Charles Goldman and the Chiefs injury report, Bown is expected to be out this week, and possibly a few more games.
You want to see him out there, but with this sternoclavicular dislocation, he's not going to see the field.
Oklahoma Sooners wide receiver Brenen Thompson is poised for a breakout 2024 season with Jackson Arnold
As part of their 2023 class, the Oklahoma Sooners added transfer wide receiver Brenen Thompson. Thompson committed to play for the Texas Longhorns in 2022, but entered the transfer portal the following April. Less than 10 days later, the speedster committed to the Sooners. Thompson didn't see the field often for Oklahoma in 2023, appearing […]
