Jalen Brown, WR, Northwestern #17
6011, 213, 4.53
Notes: From Phoenix, AZ. Early graduate from high school, he originally enrolled in classes at Oregon during the winter term and participated in spring practices with the Ducks in 2014. Saw his first action, playing in all 13 games as a backup wide receiver and on special teams, catching 7 passes for 89 yards (12.7 avg.) and 1 touchdown in 2015. Caught 19-318-4 (16.7 avg.) and was also threw a 33-yard touchdown pass in 2016. Graduated in June 2017 and transferred to Northwestern to pursue his master's degree in sports administration, joining the Wildcats with two years of remaining eligibility. He caught 3-33 (11.0 avg.) in the first three games before suffering a serious season-ending knee injury. Entering the 2018 season he was not on the team's two-deep depth chart and he has yet to return to action.
Positives: Good size-speed ratio. Catches the ball well and can run after the catch. Flashed top-notch ability at Oregon, particularly in 2016.
Negatives: Has not played much since transferring to Northwestern or returned from serious knee injury.
Summary: It's unclear if/when he will play again since getting hurt early in 2017.
