Jeffrey Michael "Jeff" Brown (born February 13, 1976 in Niagara Falls, New York) is a former All-American defensive tackle for the Iowa State University football team. Although lightly recruited in high school (having only been offered three division 1-A scholarships) Brown dominated Big Eight Conference play in his freshman year at Iowa State. In 11 games Brown recorded a Big Eight freshman record of 9 sacks while garnering 41 tackles and three forced fumbles. Former Iowa State Coach Jim Walden described Brown as "the future of Cyclones football". On Saturday, November 12, 1994 in Iowa State's last home game on the season against the number one ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers Brown suffered a torn rotator cuff and a dislocated shoulder ending his football career. Despite the injury Brown was voted an consensus NCAA AP All-American. In 2000 Brown declined to attend a ceremony honoring all Cyclone All-Americans at the University in Ames, Iowa.
