Brown, who spent the last two seasons of his NFL career with the Giants, was in a Pennsylvania hostel, according to Clarence Hill Jr. of The Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Penn State played with the Houston Oilers from 1991 to 1995, including a 1,000-yard rush season. He spent the 1997 season with the San Diego Chargers before signing with the Giants as a free agent. In 1998, Brown ran for a top 1,063 yards and played a full regular season for coach Jim Fassel’s Giants. He played in three games in 1999 – his eight-season NFL Final.

New York Post After the days he played, Brown went into coaching and served a season as a Rutgers fan coach. He served in the same role as the Cleveland Browns and Dallas Cowboys. “Gary Brown had a big heart with a big smile and a big personality. “His energy and spirit were contagious,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said in a statement. “He illuminated every room he entered and touched the lives of those who knew him in such a positive way. Everyone who knew him loved him. It means so much to the players he coached and the coaches he coached with. “His love for his family, football and life was evident every day.” We mourn the death of Gary Brown, a great man who played for two years in the Big Blue – including a 1,000-yard season in 1998.
