Distinguished Young Alumnus Award presented to former UNC football player Jason Brown

Posted Aug 6, 2022
Jason Brown ’05 doesn’t believe in throwing money at a problem, though when he was the highest-paid center in the NFL, he presumably had some to toss about. Instead, he throws his heart at it. In 2012, at the height of his professional football career, Jason retired from the St. Louis Rams and bought a thousand acres of farmland in Louisburg, NC. (Carolina Alumni Review)
