Press Release –
AUSTIN, TX, MARCH 29, 2011 – When it comes to the NFL, speed is what makes coaches & owners salivate. Clocking a forty time of 4.45 at the recent NFL Combine, former Texas Longhorn CB Chykie Brown elected to have a “do over” in today’s Texas Pro Day to improve his time. Clocking times of 4.37 & 4.35 it’s safe to suffice that Chykie made the best and MORE of his “do over.” He proved he has speed to burn in his last showing in burnt orange. Additionally, Chykie was fluid and consistent on his position drills.
Chykie Brown was a 3-year starter for the Texas Longhorns and helped lead the team to the BCS Championship Game vs. No. 1 Alabama in 2010. He appeared in 47 career games, starting 29 and tallied a total of 106 tackles (71 solo), two INTs. 24 pass break-ups, four sacks, nine TFL and two forced fumbles during his career for the Longhorns.

Chyjie Brown is picking up steam and a 4.3 forty-yard dash is doing nothing but helping his cause. The speedy cornerback is garnering attention from various teams, including visits with the New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens, and Cleveland Browns. During his Pro Day, the Houston Texans took a special interest in him, and likely will be requesting private time. With the arrow pointing up for Brown, he should see his stock move into the mid rounds of the draft.
